Join us for the second annual Summer Nature Walk Series at Saint Edward State Park, a seasonal invitation to explore, learn, and connect with the natural beauty just beyond your door. Led by knowledgeable guides from Washington State Parks and CoSEE, each walk offers a deeper look into the park’s evolving ecosystem—from ongoing restoration efforts to the diverse plants and wildlife that call this forest home.

These leisurely, all-ages walks are open to everyone, including leashed pets, and are designed to spark curiosity while offering a refreshing way to spend a summer morning. Whether you are a returning guest or discovering the park for the first time, each date brings new insights and a renewed appreciation for this remarkable landscape.

Space is limited, and advance registration is encouraged. Lace up your walking shoes and join us in the forest.

About CoSEE & the EERC

The Collaborative for Socio-Ecological Engagement (Collaborative/CoSEE) is a university-led research and learning unit that operates at the Environmental Education and Research Center (EERC) in Saint Edward State Park (SESP). The Collaborative hosts interdisciplinary and equity-centered place-based research and learning programs in the Bothell-Kenmore-Kirkland surrounding region with a broad reach to the surrounding urban communities.

The CoSEE's mission is accomplished through UW-partnered undergraduate field study, community-engaged research experiences and place-based creative practices, youth and family outreach, community science programs, and co-curricular partnerships with K-12 schools.
