Heritage Park

Heritage Park is a not-so-hidden gem that somehow only the very-locals make their way there, even though it is steps away from the ever-so-popular Marina Park. This park is behind the Heritage Hall with easy walking paths for a stroll, see the water from a distance, walk the dog, and/or play tennis. They have two tennis courts (see photo). During springtime, they have several cherry blossom trees that bloom beautifully. Parking is plentiful by the street or use their small lot (see photo). I usually am walking over from downtown to extend my walking distance. There are two benches to enjoy the water view. There are no official children’s play area, though there are some natural stones for climbing in a separated area (see photo). This park is simple, immensely peaceful, and a great place to just chill.

I really enjoyed my visit to Heritage Park, especially since it was such a pleasant and easy walk from the Kirkland downtown area. The path from downtown takes you through a charming neighborhood with many beautiful houses, and it's a great way to discover the area before arriving at the park. Upon entering, I was greeted by a large grassy field, which would be perfect for a picnic or a game. There's also a big grassy door, which was a unique and fun feature—I had to take a photo of it! The park's trail is well-maintained and winds through the area, with some lovely flowers planted along the sides. I followed the trail down to the lakeside, which offered a tranquil spot to look out over the water. Heritage Park is a great example of how Kirkland seamlessly blends its urban core with beautiful green spaces. It's a peaceful and scenic spot that feels both close to the city and a world away. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a nice stroll and a beautiful place to relax.

Lush green and wide open park area in downtown kirkland by the side of waterfront. Very peaceful and quiet walking experience with nice surroundings. Nice place to walk your dogs or relax . One can sit on the benches provided by the side of the beautiful pathway alongside the lake and enjoy the scenic beauty. Youngsters can also enjoy playing volleyball or other games on the Lush field. Beautiful sunset view in the evenings.

Gorgeous view of Lake Washington and Seattle skyline. Cute little trail, wonderful field for dogs and picnics, comfortable loop walk around. There are also tennis courts and free parking!

Very peaceful park nestled in Downtown Kirkland. It almost feels like a little oasis among all the busy streets of the area. I love the look of the heritage hall. I've yet to go inside, perhaps next time! It served as a lovely backdrop for photos during a pinup shoot. The bright summer flowers were also lovely to photograph! There are plenty of benches spread about so you can take a break and enjoy the flowers or watch people play with their sweet dogs.
