Hiking Burton Acres Park

The south end of Vashon Island is quieter than the business district, making it a lovely place to take a calming walk with your family. Burton Acres park offers a short but fulfilling hike. The 64-acre park features more than 1.2 miles of trails to explore on a loop route.

The conservation property protects classic western Washington forest and habitat on this remote corner of the Burton Peninsula. Locals and other park users created a network of walking, hiking, and horseback riding trails crisscrossing the park interior between Burton and Jensen Point, and perimeter.
