Written Directions

Interlaken Blvd is a charming, quiet, somewhat technical road in the heart of Seattle. Take it slow, especially the first time, as there are some surprise hairpins. Then, take a leisurely ride through the Arboretum at the beginning of Lake Washington Boulevard. This snakes and winds all the way over to the shore of Lake Washington, and down to the beautiful and verdant Seward Park.

Scenery

Beginning with a technical hill climb, then evening out with a gently curving cruise through a park and around a lakeside, is a terrific way to spend an afternoon.

Drive Enjoyment

The road quality varies greatly throughout. Interlaken Blvd has some pretty rough pavement, as do certain small sections of the Lake Washington drive. Mostly, however, it's smooth sailing.

Tourism Opportunities

Particularly near Leschi park there are numerous restaurants to stop at.

city of Seattle has closed most of this route for civic and social reason - don't bother trying to understand socialist Seattle. road is closed to all motorized traffic.

A bit slowed through the residential area. A bit of twistiness within the city. Lots of joggers, bikers, even strollers. Connects fairly well to the mercer island loop
