With its trailhead located just off Lenora St. (which becomes Lowell-Snohomish River Road), near Rotary Park, this multi-use trail features a 10-foot-wide paved path that includes views of Mt. Baker, Rainier and the Cascades, as well as numerous wildlife habitats. The paved trail suddenly ends at a fork. To the right there are railroad tracks. To the left an unpaved road stretches back around towards the parking lot.
