Issaquah Trails

Welcome to Trailhead City

With more than 200 miles of trails, over a dozen trailheads and 1,300 acres of open space in our backyard, it’s easy to see why Issaquah is nicknamed Trailhead City.

Want to explore our community’s beautiful natural environment? Visitors can use King County’s Trailhead Direct to easily access our trails. In 2018, more than 8,500 boardings were made to the Issaquah Alps.

Once here, hikers are encouraged to use our Issaquah Trails Map, a comprehensive guide to the network crisscrossing our community’s parks, neighborhoods and public open space.
