This walk touches on a few places and doesn’t neatly fit into any particular neighborhood. It starts at one of the entrances to University Village, moves into a wetland, passes by one of the best donut joints in the city, skims along a cemetery, and ends near Seattle’s Children’s Hospital. I’d call it Laurelhurst but it isn’t really. In any case, Enjoy this glimpse into one more slice of the city.
