The Interurban Trail is a rail trail in Whatcom County, Washington. Built for bicycle and hiking recreation, the trail runs 6.6 miles (10.6 km)[1][2][3] between Fairhaven and Larrabee State Park in the Bellingham area.[4]
The trail's northernmost trailhead can be accessed in downtown Fairhaven, connecting to Boulevard Park, downtown Bellingham and onwards to Fairhaven Park, Arroyo Park, and Teddy Bear Cove Park. Additional access includes North Chuckanut Mountain Trailhead, Hiline Road, Fragrance Lake Trailhead, and Clayton Beach Trailhead.
