Bellevue Downtown Park

Revamped alongside the Inspiration Playground project in 2017, Bellevue Downtown Park sits nestled amidst the towers of downtown Bellevue. This park has it all: a pretty, hard-packed path encircling a fancy pond and waterfall, lush grassy fields for playing and picnicking, and of course, the incredible accessible playground promising near-endless hours of fun on climbers, swings and other play elements. The youngest of the bunch can also try their wheels on the playscape’s rubberized cover that makes for no-ouch falls.

Post-cycling pit stop: Get your ice cream fix across the street, hop over to Main Street for lots of tasty lunch options or pop over to refreshed Meydenbauer Bay Park to dip your toes in the lake.
