TRAIL HISTORY
The Cedar River Trail
(CRT) is a King County Trail that follows the Cedar
River from where it enters Lake Washington in the City
of Renton upriver to the community of Landsburg at the
boundary of the City of Seattle’s Cedar River Watershed.
At 17.4 miles in length the CRT is a paved, off-road
trail for the first 12.3 miles, and features a soft
surface for the last five miles.
The trail follows a historic railroad route between the
river and State Route 169, and passes through or near
Renton, Maplewood, Cedar Mountain, Maple Valley, and
Rock Creek. It offers views and access to Lake
Washington, downtown Renton, Cedar River Park, Maplewood
Golf Course, Ron Regis Park, Cedar Grove Park, and Maple
Valley.
The CRT also provides excellent views and access to the
Cedar River along its length. Between Renton and Maple
Valley the CRT is popular with bicyclists and skaters
and provides both recreational and non-motorized
commuting opportunities.
At Maple Valley the trail intersects the Green-To-Cedar
Rivers Trail, which runs through central Maple Valley,
then continues to the more secluded Rock Creek area and
onto Landsburg in a wooded river valley. This
soft-surface segment is popular with off-road
bicyclists, joggers, walkers and equestrians.
