Ben Burr Trail
Ben Burr Trail, Spokane Parks, Liberty Park, Underhill Park, Spokane,sponsor
This trail was constructed along an abandoned railroad line - part of the old Spokane and Inland Empire Railroad Company.
The trail is crushed stone, dirt and gravel, and runs between Underhill and Liberty Parks in SE Spokane. The trail, along with the surrounding neighborhoods, is tree-lined, making for a pleasant stroll. Ruins of the old park can also be seen. It is about a mile long, the highlight being a bridge across Altamont Street.
It is named for Ben Burr because of his work with the Great Northern Railway for forty-eight years.
Park at Liberty Park, (near E. 3rd Avenue and Liberty Park Place.) You can also park near the swimming pool at Liberty (Pittsburg Street and E. 5th Avenue.) Parking is also available on the southeast end of the trail at Underhill Park (the end of Fiske St. near E. 8th Ave.)
Open dawn to dusk.
