Take a stroll beneath tree canopies and see downtown like never before with the Edmonds Notable Trees – Downtown Tree Walk, a new interactive experience created by Pam Tauer with support from the Friends of Edmonds Trees.

This self-guided walking tour highlights the living landmarks that give Edmonds its natural charm — from stately evergreens to heritage specimens that tell stories of the city’s history, culture and ecosystems.

Follow the interactive map to explore each tree, featuring photos and descriptions that reveal the science and significance behind these remarkable trees. “Whether you’re a nature lover, a curious explorer, or simply looking for a refreshing way to enjoy downtown, this walk invites you to pause, look up, and appreciate the beauty that roots our community together,” Friends of Edmonds Trees said in an announcement. “Start your tree walk today — and see Edmonds grow in a whole new way.”

You’re invited to “hurry out while the deciduous trees still have their leaves,” the announcement continued. “Pinecones are plentiful on the cedars, and the autumn foliage is beautiful.”

  1. What a great idea! This is sure to be a walk that tree lovers and those who want to learn more about them will enjoy.

  2. The weather these next few days looks perfect for an invigorating walk to view these notable trees in their fall glory. Repeating the walk at various points throughout the year will enable us to observe seasonal changes. Thank you, Pam Tauer and helpers from Friends of Edmonds Trees for creating this fun way to connect with and learn about our urban forest.

  3. Thank you sooo much, Pam, and the Friends of Edmonds Trees group. This is a much needed and welcomed addition to our community. Looking forward to the walk this weekend.

  4. I love your story of our trees. After high school Botany and some time with Master Gardeners program years ago I am thrilled to Get a refresher of the trees among us.
    I look forward to more. It truly is so educational and inspiring to see these trees and learn about them
