About Salmon

Creek

Salmon Creek, located between Seahurst Park and Downtown Burien, is a residential and park-adjacent Burien neighborhood with wooded ravines and creekside trails. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Seahurst Park shoreline and trailheads, where bluff-top paths, beachcombing stretches, and picnic lawns set a salt-air rhythm. Mid-century ramblers and split-levels sit alongside newer infill on curving streets that follow the creek’s contours. Salmon Creek Ravine Park reads as the green spine, with footbridges and ferny shade shaping daily walks. A short drive north, the Highline SeaTac Botanical Garden adds a cultivated counterpoint to the wilder ravine landscape.
