Trail Running

The Des Moines Creek Trail is an ideal place for a casual run. This paved, tree-lined trail stretches from Des Moines Beach Park to a trailhead a few blocks from the Angle Lake Light Rail Station on S 200th St. As the path curves between forested hillsides, you can hear a cheerful, watery babble from the creek that runs alongside it. Admire lush leaves, ferns, bright green moss, and alder trees.

Join a Group Run: Every week, in cities throughout the world, runners meet for free, social 5K runs through an organization called parkrun. Anyone can join, and it's a great way for travelers to find people to run with when they're visiting a new city. The Des Moines Creek parkrun group meets every Saturday morning at the Des Moines Beach Park Event Center. The course follows the Des Moines Creek Trail a couple of miles before turning back.

Wasserland Yoga

What better place could there be for a yoga class than a patio with a sweeping view of the ocean? During the summer on select dates, Waterland Yoga offers classes at Sound View Park in Des Moines, Washington, which overlooks Puget Sound. There is no prior experience required, and no need to pre-register. Just show up as you are (in comfy clothing, of course). If it's raining, and during other seasons, the classes often take place at the nearby Des Moines Theater. Check their Instagram Page or Explore Seattle Southside's Event Calendar for upcoming dates.

For a super sporty morning, join the parkrun event and then follow it with a yoga class!

Go For a Bike Ride

Cyclists have no shortage of great, paved bike routes in Seattle Southside, including the Interurban Trail, which runs through Tukwila and several other cities along a near-straight 14-mile-long route beside the historic Interurban Rail Line. The trail provides access to the Southcenter area, Renton Junction, downtown Kent, Emerald Downs in Auburn, and the communities of Algona and Pacific. This paved trail is a great spot to put in miles while enjoying a wide variety of views. It also connects with the Green River Trail, creating a car-free cycling loop for more than 20 miles.
