Woodland Park Zoo and Gilman Playground keeps residents active outside

Homes on the east side of the community are located just minutes from the Woodland Park Zoo, a conservation-focused area, caring for hundreds of animal species. At the zoo, visitors can grab food on the go at one of the three restaurants located on the zoo's grounds or host a private party with an up-close-and-personal experience with an ambassador animal. Woodland Park provides a place to practice soccer games and for pups to roam free in the grassy off-leash area. Pathways Park, formally known as Gilman Playground Park, is ideal for a casual day of play, community gatherings and sports games. Pathways connects to the Gilman-Burke Trail, a stretch of quiet woodlands for those seeking a serene run, bike ride or stroll. Take a walk on the short wooden path at the 11th Avenue NW Street End Park, which overlooks the Salmon Bay. A porch swing grants sweeping views of the water.
