WABI Weekday Walkers celebrates our 8th anniversary by returning to the site of our first walk, Seahurst Park, Wednesday, August 19 at 9 am. Note we will start at the TOP of the hill in the Shorewood neighborhood and walk down the service road to the Marine Science Center at the north end of Seahurst Beach. See walk details below for how to access the “secret” entrance to the park.
Masks are required and we will practice social distancing.
Walk Details:
- Date and Time: Wednesday, August 19, 2020. Please come 5-10 minutes early so we can start walking promptly at 9 am.
- Meetup Location: Approx. 13200 Shorewood Dr. SW, Burien WA 98166
(There’s a passageway in the cyclone fence in the corner.) See the map below. - Directions: From Burien Town Square Park, go WEST (toward the water) on SW 152nd St.
Turn RIGHT and go NORTH on Ambaum Blvd. SW until SW 130th St.
Turn LEFT on SW 130th St.
Go up the hill, following the road and veer RIGHT on SW 131st St.
Drive one block to Shorewood Drive SW, turn left and look for parking.
Meet at the passage in the corner of the cyclone fence. - Parking: Street parking at the site is limited. Since the walk starts in a residential area, we remind you to be considerate of private property and driveway accesses.
- Walk Conditions and Time: Depending on the group’s preferences, we’ll probably walk DOWN the service road and UP the trail. Even in August, trail may be muddy. Note there is about 400′ elevation gain from beach to starting point.
Here’s a map, below, from the City of Burien showing our meeting place, the purple-dashed service road and the red-dashed trail (at the top of the map.)
