King County is fortunate to have one of the most extensive networks of regional trails and greenways in the nation, with 300 miles of paved and unpaved routes stretching from Puget Sound to the Cascade Range. What distinguishes The King County Regional Trails System (RTS) is its abundance of off-road paths ideal for exploration, healthy active recreation, and nonmotorized mobility. The regional trails not only provide alternative routes to destinations throughout our region, they are destinations in themselves, each with a unique personality. A list of trails and a map can be found here:

Interurban Trail – South Segment
The south segment of the Interurban Trail links the cities of Tukwila, Kent, Auburn, Algona, and Pacific along a nearly straight 15-mile alignment that follows the historic Interurban rail line. The trail starts at Fort Dent Way just south of Fort Dent Park in Tukwila and then immediately crosses over the Green River. After passing beneath Interstate 405, the Interurban Trail turns south within the Puget Sound Energy power line corridor. The alignment traverses a variety of landscapes with views of many regional activities as it follows the BNSF Railway through historic industrial areas and suburban lands before crossing the broad Green River Valley. Access is provided to Southcenter, Renton Junction, downtown Kent, the Emerald Downs racetrack in Auburn, and the communities of Algona and Pacific. The trail currently ends at Stewart Rd SE in Pacific. The Interurban intersects the Green River Trail in Tukwila and again in south Kent to create a recreational loop through the Green River Valley. The Interurban Trail is popular for both recreation and commuting.
