Bicycle Weekends on Lake Washington Blvd announced for summer 2025

Get ready to roll with the annual Seattle tradition

Get ready to roll! Starting in May, Bicycle Weekends are back on Lake Washington Boulevard in Seattle, giving bikers, walkers, runners, strollers (and more) a chance to enjoy this gorgeous route to Seward Park car-free. On certain weekends through September, a stretch of the boulevard between Seward Park and Mount Baker Park Beach will be closed to all motorized vehicles from 10 a.m. Saturday to 6 p.m. Sunday.
