Ten Trails is Nestled Among Some of the Area’s Best Spots for Kayaking

Ten Trails offers a unique location, with all the style and conveniences of urban living, in a tranquil and rural setting. This new master planned community is just minutes from some of the Seattle area’s best spots for hiking, camping, mountain-biking and water sports. Avid kayakers will love the community’s close proximity to some of the area’s most scenic waterways.

Lake Sawyer

Located less than three miles from Ten Trails, Lake Sawyer is King County’s fourth largest natural lake. Launch your kayak from the public boat ramp, located on the northwest side of the lake, and pay only the $5 parking fee for a day of fun out on the water. Lake Sawyer also boasts one of the area’s best Independence Day fireworks displays! Ten Trails families who kayak and want an up-close-and-personal view of the show can plan to get the lake early to stake their spot for a waterside view!

Nolte State Park 

Just northeast of Enumclaw, on the edge of the Cascade Mountains, Nolte State Park offers 117 acres for Ten Trails residents to explore, including one of the park’s most scenic features: Deep Lake.

Lake Meridian is located just a short drive from Ten Trails in nearby Kent. The lake is one of the few lakes in King County that allows motorized boating, however, kayaking and canoeing are also popular watersports on the lake.

Lake Wilderness

Lake Wilderness is a great spot for Ten Trails residents who would like to enjoy a nearby place for an early-morning paddle. The lake doesn’t allow boats with internal combustion engines, so it’s ideal for kayakers looking for quiet respite and reflection over the park’s natural beauty and a great spot for viewing local wildlife.

Point Defiance Park 

Just a short drive Southeast from Ten Trails, Point Defiance is one of the Puget Sound’s most scenic and diverse parks.

Discover Local History when you Visit the Nearby Coal Miners’ Honor Garden

Ten Trails residents can discover more about their city’s rich history at the local Black Diamond Historical Depot Museum, which is located just minutes from the community at 32627 Railroad Ave, Black Diamond, WA 98010. The museum is open Thursdays from 9 am to 4 pm, and weekends from noon to 3 pm. The museum’s weekend hours after Memorial Day to Labor Day are from noon to 4 pm.  While there, be sure to check out the outdoor Coal Miners’ Honor Garden, which commemorates former Washington state coal miners.

Memorial Wall and Statue

Inspired by a coal miner memorial statue in Roslyn, WA, the Black Diamond Coal Miners’ Honor Garden and beautiful bronze miner statue were dedicated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony in summer 2013. One of the most visually-striking aspects of the memorial is the large, 28-foot granite wall that lists more than 1100 names of miners who perished in the coal mines of Washington State, including a list of unknown miners. In front of the wall sits a life-size bronze miner’s statue that was created by artist Paul Crites of Ellensburg, WA. The statue includes gorgeous fine details like a patina meant to depict the coal dust that typically covered miners during their work.

Honor Garden

The memorial also has a garden of flowers and plants around it that were planted by late local resident, Katherine Daniels, and is now maintained by Jane Falding. Nearby are four granite benches for visitors to use to sit and admire the memorial, or to simply enjoy watching the passers-by in downtown Black Diamond’s charming historic setting. Visitors may notice that around the base of the wall and statue are inscribed brick pavers. These donated pavers help maintain the upkeep of the Honor Garden and can be purchased through the museum. For more information about the Coal Miners” Honor Garden, contact the Black Diamond Museum Depot at 360-886-2142

Five of the Area’s Best Spring Mountain Bike Rides 

Did you know that mountain bikers from all over the Pacific Northwest flock to this area for a world-class riding experience? The region between Issaquah and Black Diamond is a mecca for mountain biking at all ability levels. We are fortunate to have these opportunities right outside our doorstep! Here are some of the most popular local trail systems for your springtime ride.

Lake Sawyer Trails 

The Lake Sawyer bike system is  located the area on the west side of Hwy 169 in Black Diamond,  on a mix of private property and King County Parks land. It consists of a web of cross-country trails including some ladder bridges, drops, and other free-ride obstacles with plenty of tight and twisty single-track routes. You won’t find hard climbs here, but there are a few shorter, steep climbs covered in tree roots. As well as some scenic viewpoints. The Lake Sawyer trail network connects to Black Diamond Open Space, Summit Ridge, and Henry’s Ridge.

Henry’s Ridge Natural Area

The official King County name for the Henry’s Ridge Natural Area Trail is the Maple Ridge Highlands Open Space Trail.  In Maple Valley, this network of trails is similar to the Lake Sawyer system with more climbing and descending. This is a suitable spring ride because it boasts good-draining soil and tree cover, keeping the trails from getting too muddy. There are currently eight miles of trails with new trails coming soon.

Black Diamond Open Space Trails 

On the north end of Black Diamond near Maple Valley, Black Diamond Open Space is 1,240 acres of popular riding trails. You’ll find the area’s parking lot on the east side of Hwy 169. Less technical and more flat than other local parks, this is the most family-friendly ride on this list.

Duthie Hill Mountain Bike Park 

Duthie Hill Park in nearby Issaquah consists of 136 acres in a thick evergreen forest on the Sammamish Plateau. It was designed specifically for mountain-biking and is the most-visited mountain bike trail system in the state. The park offers several activity options including technical free-ride trails and XC trails that can be connected into a 5-mile loop. Technical riders will enjoy the progressive jump lines and skill-building features like drops of varying heights, tables and step-down jumps. Although beginners are welcome at Duthie, moderate and advanced riders will love this park!

Tiger Mountain

Tiger mountain offers 12 miles of intermediate to advanced trails plus some fire roads. Riders usually begin by taking the fire road up 3.5 miles to the East Tiger summit then descend via single-track or take a loop on the lower mountain. The climb to the summit takes a lot of effort and is considered quite challenging but worth the Mt. Rainier view on clear days.
