Bridle Trails combines forested tranquility with everyday convenience, offering a rare equestrian-friendly pocket on the southeast side of Kirkland. Towering evergreens, meandering lanes, and larger lots give the area a countryside feel, while daily needs are close at hand at Bridle Trails Shopping Center and along 116th Avenue NE. Commuters appreciate quick connections to Bellevue and Redmond, as well as regional hubs throughout King County.
Outdoor life takes center stage at the 482-acre Bridle Trails State Park, renowned for its equestrian culture, soft-surface loops, and towering second-growth forest. You’ll find miles of riding and walking options, picnic areas, and open-air arenas that host horse-focused activities throughout the year. For cycling, jogging, and stroller-friendly outings, the Cross Kirkland Corridor links neighborhoods to waterfront parks and tech employment centers, complementing nearby pocket parks and woodland preserves.
Families value access to the highly regarded Lake Washington School District, with additional educational and extracurricular choices just over the border in Bellevue. Weekends might include trail rides at dawn, a coffee stop with neighbors, and an afternoon loop through the woods before dinner at a local eatery—proof that a peaceful, outdoorsy lifestyle can coexist with an urban job and calendar.
