Natural Surroundings
Looking at an overhead map view of Mill Creek, one appreciates the amount of green space. Small playground areas dot the map, and large swaths of reserved green space are evident. The North Creek Trail is the most impressive of this green space. The North Creek Trail starts from North Creek Park, where you can enjoy boardwalks over impressive wetlands, runs Mill Creek’s entire western side, and ends in south Everett at McCollum Park. The section of the trail from Mill Creek Town Center to McCollum Park is nearly two miles of uninterrupted tree cover on a paved path that serves walkers, runners, and bikers.
