1/4 mile looping path in a neighborhood park.
The park has three entries. The main face of the park is on 114th St. Paths also enter the park from 38th Ave and from 116th St.
A neighborhood with a wide open field, and paths to walk around. An easy place to make laps if you want. You could choose different loops of the 2/5th mile of paths to combine for the distance you want to walk. The tree on the north side is an intriguing presence.
The park has two entrances. The main one at 45th Ave and 126th Street and a side path from 126th Circle.
This small neighborhood park connects three separate neighborhoods along a quiet stream, a tributary to Whipple Creek.
The main park entrance is at NW 142nd St. The paved path crosses a foot bridge to NW 7th Place, where there’s a nice gazebo to sit in. Dirt trails also connect to NW 146th Way.
Named for a long time resident and community volunteer in Battle Ground, this park has a nice walk around the duck ponds. There is about a half mile of paved paths. As far as I know, Florence Robison is not directly related to me, but perhaps linked through distant cousins. The duck ponds provide a relaxing sight to meander around.
In addition to access from NW 9th St, this park has connections to 15th Ave and 11th St and to 10th St and 18th Ct.
On the south side of the river, you can explore trails in the west La Center bottom lands. During the right season, this is a good area to observe waterfowl, including a large flock of swans (from a distance) who winter there. While the trail to the west is clear for less than half a mile, it does open interesting areas to explore. I followed deer paths for another 1/2 mile. It is interesting to explore some of the deer paths and beaver trails through this area.
A recently developed neighborhood park. There is an interesting spiral walk as well as a forested area with paths. The Google Maps images, sky view and street view, are all from before the park was developed. There is access from 96th St and from 93rd St (although it does not look it in Google Maps). As is typical of many neighborhood parks in Clark County, this one has a nice looped paved path, as well as an area of barkdust paths in the wooded area.
Another nice neighborhood park, with a 1/3rd mile loop walk. The main entrance is on NE 124th Ave (Google street view is from before the park was developed) with access paths to NE 104th St and NE 102nd St or NE 121st Ave.
This quiet neighborhood park has about a half mile of looping path to walk. A very easy level walk to loop around. There are three entry points. Along NE 131st Ave, the end or NE 129th Ave, and at the end of Sunrise Acres.
This area includes a campground and day use area. From the day use area there is a hiking trail that makes a 1.6+ mile loop. When I hiked this trail, I came across an incredible blue flower.
This is actually an as yet unnamed undeveloped park, but it does have a nice dirt 1/4 mile loop path for taking a walk. At the west end there are trails that continue into the forested area and some pastures, but these trails lead into private property and do not provide access to other public sites. A great plan would be to negotiate a right of way or land purchase from these property owners (4 would need to included) to create a trail access to the Whipple Creek Hollow Natural Area.
