This bench offers a fantastic view toward the south end of Puget Sound, with portions of West Seattle and parts of Magnolia. On a clear day, you can see Mount Rainer in the distance.

Running

This lookout offers stunning views of Puget Sound, the mountains, and the city skyline. You’ll also pass by some unique rock formations and a lighthouse along the way. The trail is mostly flat, with some stairs and a few muddy sections. You can catch your breath and enjoy the panorama here. The South Beach Trail is a great option for a quick and refreshing run in nature.
