Such a beautiful park , be it rain or shine. Come here to run with your dog, or on your own, or for a date, or a bike ride , or a nice walk by the lake sipping on your latte . And people are so friendly .

ALL foot traffic please keep to the inside lane. If you MUST jog or walk in the wheels lane , at least go the opposite direction (clockwise) so you can see oncoming traffic and GTFO of the way.

Sofia Bedell

I'll be honest, the park is so nice and beautiful. This is a greate park for swimming , boating, and a beautiful walk area. I definitely checked it out! Highly recommended.

Clarissa S

if you have some spare time to chill , come here to enjoy the view ! grab a meal at nearby Beth's Cafe afterwards.

Lloyd Bagtas

One of the reasons I love Seattle is this park . Go for a 5k loop run out kayak in the lake . They have great running groups that meetup almost everyday here. Check it out on meetup.com.

Damon Conklin

Enjoy this great little getaway in the heart of Seattle. There may be lots of people there so be nice enjoy the vibe. Not everyone is going to do it perfect and that’s just perfect

Eric George

Super busy on the weekends and for good reason, it is a great park . I have run the trail around this lake so many times I could do it with my eyes closed.

Barbara Colnar Morgen

Please follow the rules, and keep all walking, jogging, dogs and strollers on the side of the path nearest the lake ! Crossing over to the wrong "lane" is a hazard to you, your dog , and your baby.

Jaysheel Shah

Good spot for jogging. Usually filled with other super-healthy runners ... Pretty busy even on a Saturday morning ... although I have managed to find parking , except for when they have rowing events

HISTORY

This artificial lake is home to a variety of geese, ducks & other wildlife . 1 lap around the lake is just 2.8 miles, & you can rent in-line skates or beach cruisers at nearby Gregg's Greenlake Cycle.

Saint Marc

The water cleanliness, women running around in yoga pants with a passion to out breed the impending alien invasion, seriously though, California dimes lol, where you you at Sue Bird uffff.

Taylor Winn

Take your time walking around the lake . It is beautiful, especially in the summer.

Eric

Be sure that your feet are broken into whatever sandals you own because you will get blisters from the lap around the lake . Otherwise enjoy the view and the sun.

WHOLE LOTTA NOSTALGIA: According to local legend, Led Zepplin once opened for Herman's Hermits on a platform at the SW corner of Green Lake back in the 60s.

Sam Gr

Run around the lake on a weekend morning to get some energy from the masses. Great 3 mile loop!

Rebekah Nguyen

Green Lake at 9 minutes drive to the east of Seattle dentist Evergreen Smile Studio

Bill Caples

A Seattle gem, especially in good weather. Fun to walk around with multiple good dining options.

Dante's U-District

Playing on the monkey bar 's. All water activities are fun. Great family environment . ..

France Freeman

Inner path around the lake is about 2.79 miles. Beautiful place to jog whether it's sunny or cloudy, but expect sunny weekend days to be quite busy with lots and kids and animals on the trail .

Nadia Chilmonik

Amazing! So many dogs and runners . had an awesome time but know that the kids playground is crowded

James Tanliao

Scenic sunset . There are basketball courts , baseball diamonds , soccer fields , and tennis courts in the vicinity.

Kids can get an up-close look at the night sky when they set up telescopes in the park for Star Parties one Saturday each month.Powered by ParentsConnect.com Read more

Very nice picnic place for night and day.

Oremo Ochillo

Great way to kill an hour an 10 minutes or so. Bring a friend and some water

Nobodyfamous Timothy K

Great way to start the day while getting your cosmic body's energy flowing with few laps around this beautiful lake .

Sarah Foley

An easy-breezy 2.8 mile walk around the lake is the best way to start my day

kesha senters

People are friendly , pet friendly , store, rental equipment.

Greg Wilcox

Glad we're lucky enough to have this beautiful spot next to the pretty awesome man-made lake !

Alex Hurminator

Wondering why ppl doesn’t read god damned sights, there is the lines for bikes rollers, and other one for a walkers....

Allison

Some of the best dog watching in the city . So many people bring their dogs to walk here.

Mike Barbre

So many things to do around Green Lake , it's hard to fit. Exercise on the 2.8 mi. track around the lake , go to a stage play at Seattle Public Theater at the Bathhouse, go to dinner at all the restaura

Jackie W

Please keep your children out of the faster wheels lane , including strollers. The ammount of people I see eat it because we really don't want to hurt your kiddos is unbelievable (and painful!) xoxo

NorthSeattleSarah

Use good manners on the busy 2.8mile loop - it gets crowded in nice weather and everyone wants to enjoy it.

ᴡ Santos

Great for picnics and meeting up for bike rides

Jon Pierson

A run around the outside trail is a little over 5k and always less crowded !

Kirill Kukuruza

So beautiful and calm place !

Chris Lindhartsen

Take a bike ride around the lake - or a few, just remember to watch for people and your own pace.

The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention

On October 1, 2011, Green Lake Park played host to one of our Out of the Darkness Community Walks to raise money for vital research, education and outreach programs for suicide prevention.

Ashraf El-Masry

Pay attention..roller skaters cannot stop on a dime & I am tired of havng 2 take the fall...Be Warned - i'm taking u out from here on out...

Barbara Colnar Morgen

annoying when the history channel leaves a tip that is wrong.Greenlake is not manmade- it was mapped on the first maps of Seattle, and Greggs stopped renting rollerblades more than 5 years ago.

Travis Plunk

Beautiful flat walk

Josh Williams

The pool here has kids swim lessons in the Summer. Sign up early

sullystan

Real runners take the outside loop to avoid families in a row or not-so-smooth rollerbladers who tend to weave in and out

Cassidy Emge

Excellent running loop. Can get really crowded . Just mind your p's and q's.

Brook Shelley

Beautiful place to catch some sun

Jessica Taylor

Great little park to walk around on a nice day.

Daniel Dawson

The trees are great to hug, you should try it!

Cindy Phan

Jin Moon

Has the best sunset ! So romantic ! ♡

There is a right wag and wrong way to cruise around the lake on wheels. Make sure to go the correct direction ;) www.swayable.com
