Forest to Sky Trail Corridor II
- Status
- Funded in 2011
The Bainbridge Island Park District will use this grant to buy 4 acres to provide the last link in the east-west corridor of the 5.5-mile Forest to Sky Trail. Contemplated since the 1970s, the Forest to Sky Trail crosses Bainbridge Island to link three parks (The Grand Forest, Meigs Park, and Battle Point Park) and two Bainbridge Island Land Trust corridor lands. This purchase will connect two portions of The Grand Forest together and connect to Meigs Park and Manitou Beach. Trail users will see a panoramic view from Manitou Beach to Seattle, as well as forests, ponds, wetlands, meadows, and the Olympic Mountains. The district will contribute $211,000 in voter bonds and donated land.
