Getting There Suggest change

Pay for your parking pass at the Montlake Gold Course Clubhouse. The cost is $14/car at the time of writing. Park at the signed hairpin turn across from Terrace Falls Drive and take the trail in front of the parking spots. When you hit the powerlines, turn downhill and walk a short distance down the streambed, then turn right past the short wall. Within another few minutes you'll arrive at University Route.
