Wednesday Wander - Walk the 520 Bridge

Wednesday Wander is your chance to discover the city you live in. Each month we explore a new location — whether it’s a stroll through a neighbourhood, a hike in the bush, or a visit to an art gallery or museum. Get together with other Aussies and Kiwis as we introduce you to Seattle’s best kept secrets.

This month, we’re heading across Lake Washington for a stroll with skyline views and a breeze in your hair. The 520 Bridge walk is a relaxed 3.2 miles (that's just over 5kms for those of us still using metric!) one way, with wide paths perfect for chatting as you go. Power walkers can turn around and head back for a full loop, while the rest of us can hop on a bus and call it a win.

And, if Mt Rainier decides to make an appearance? Local law (probably) says you must yell “THE MOUNTAIN'S OUT!” at full volume! Don’t worry — everyone else on the trail will get it!

We’ll wrap things up with a well-earned cuppa (and maybe a pastry) at the Queen Bee Café — because nothing says “we conquered a floating bridge” like coffee and carbs..
