A Ramble from the Ballard Bridge to the Fremont Bridge and Back, Summer, 2023

This one runs from the south side of the Ballard Bridge, and follows a canalside trail to the Fremont Bridge. I then cross that and follow the Burke-Gilman back to the north side of the Ballard Bridge. Both trails are popular with runners and cyclists, plus the canal is full of small boats. Enjoy!
