Seattle Olmsted 70 Section 12 Resources

Starts in Magnolia Village and runs along the Magnolia Boulevard W where great views lead to a long stairway down to Perkins Lane (where houses have slid into the Sound). The trail rises to Discovery Park to again follow the bluff until finding the West Point Lighthouse. A switch backed trail leads back into the heart of Fort Lawton passing Daybreak Star on the way to Commodore Park and the Ballard Locks, to complete the 120km circuit. It’s 6.7 miles one-way with 779 feet elevation gain (10.8 km, 237m of elevation gain)
