“I rented my board at Bothell Landing Park, and it was such a peaceful trip! It’s a slow-moving river, as you don’t even notice a current,” says Tabitha Bailar, founder of Travel Compositions. “This made for a stressless paddle because I didn’t have to worry about balancing against waves.”
Think of it as almost pondlike, as underwater grass, lilly pads and reeds decorate the water. Ducks and geese toodle by you without a care in the world. The river runs alongside a bike trail if you go east, but paddling west, you’re passing by backyards of quiet homes and eventually will end up in Washington Lake.
