Longfellow Creek begins at Roxhill Park, and flows north, just west of Delridge Way until it goes into a pipe near the West Seattle Bridge. We'll start above the piped section, and follow the Longfelllow Creek trail, which goes through neighborhoods and green spaces most of the way to Roxhill Park. We will have a restroom stop midway through the walk.
