Mount Baker Park is a lovely landscaped park designed as part of the Olmsted Brothers' master plan for Seattle parks design in 1903.

The park, which is located within the Seattle neighborhood of the same name, gently slopes down toward the Lake Washington shoreline, where the Mount Baker Bathing Beach offers opportunities for swimming, sunbathing, and shoreline play.

Lifeguards are staffed on duty at the beach during peak hours throughout the summer months. Families can also make use of the park's charming children's playground near S McClellan St., which was recently renovated in 2016.

Beautiful park pathways meander through growth of mountain ash, maple, and chestnut trees between the beach area and the surrounding neighborhood.

Visitors should note that the park serves as the starting point for Seattle's Bicycle Sunday events and should avoid event days to avoid park and beach crowds.
