Deadhorse Canyon & Rainier Beach
Enhanced Seattle Stairway Walk deep into South Seattle's Deadhorse Canyon plus casual tour of Kubota Garden.
on the trail
Start at Kubota Garden, the classic Japanese landscape, and hike city streets to a hidden entrance into Deadhorse Canyon. Good trails wind through the second growth urban oasis and exit above Lake Washington. Many stairs lead down to Rainier Ave and others head back up for the hike back to Kubota Garden along Renton Ave. Spend time wandering through these well maintained walks with multiple viewpoints and peaceful resting spots for quiet time. Many variations, side trips and plenty of stairs are described in Walk 21, "Deadhorse Canyon and Rainier Beach," in Seattle Stairway Walks. Sidewalks are available on most of the streets.
