West Duwamish Greenbelt Trails

Seattle's Largest Contiguous Forest

Hike the Greenbelt

Urban forests are important community spaces that increase our city’s natural beauty, contribute to our health, and make the natural world accessible for everyone to enjoy. The West Duwamish Greenbelt is the largest contiguous forest in Seattle, spreading over 550 acres in West Seattle from the tip of Pigeon Point to Westcrest Park. The West Duwamish Greenbelt Trails group (WDGT) promotes walking and hiking trails in the greenbelt.  (See this article in The Seattle Times.)

Our guided hikes for spring, summer, and fall 2024 start on Saturday April 20.  We will guide a hike every third Saturday, starting at 9:30 a.m. at Pathfinder School.  WDGT 2024 Hikes with photos for social media
