Japanese Gulch, Mukilteo WA

Japanese Gulch is a great greenbelt for mountain biking in, with 14 miles of single-track trails and a possible 500ft. elevation gain. Throughout the trails you can find numerous ladders, dirt jumps, and drops, all with varying levels of difficulty allowing for a good time for any skill level of rider.

There are many entrances into the gulch, with the main one right off of 5th st in Mukilteo, Wa. Pull off at the bridge that goes over the train tracks, a sign was recently added saying Japanese Gulch here. you are starting at the bottom from this entrance, so every trail leads up, and you have a variety of options. Explore them all yourself and you wont be disappointed.

Another possible entrance is off of the Mukilteo Speedway, near 5th st. Instead turn onto Goat Trail Loop Road and follow it all the way to the top, where you turn right onto 19th. This entrance will put you near some fairly large dirt jumps and ladders, just poke around for them.

Yet another entrance into the gulch is near the end of seaway blvd off of Hwy 526, in the back corner of the baseball fields on your left side. This puts you at the top of a plateau with fun downhills, jumps, ladders, and drops in every direction. It's a solid time, but riding back up can be a bummer. Shuttle? 

There is acess to all the trails from all the entrances. Have fun, love animals, wear a helmet.
peace.
