"Lincoln Park is West Seattle's major multi-purpose park - a nose-shaped bluff on Puget Sound just north of the Fauntleroy Ferry Terminal. Switchbacks on the north and gentle trails to the south connect a mile of seawalls, rocky beaches to a bluff of grassy forests and meadows with play and picnic areas galore."
(Excerpt from Enjoying Seattle's Parks by Brandt Morgan)
Amazingly diverse for its size, Lincoln includes 4.6 miles of walking paths, 3.9 miles of bike trails, five picnic shelters, acres of playfields, and an outdoor heated saltwater pool and bathhouse.
In 2016 the Seattle Park District funded the renovation of the north play area. It features 'tree house' elements, a cable ride, new play equipment, a plaza and interactive information on migratory birds found in Lincoln Park. The park also features inclusive and accessible play elements for all such as a group saucer swing, an accessible cable ride, an accessible sand table, and a small alcove for sensory sensitive children.
Launch your hand carry boat from 300' of shoreline at the south end of the park.
