Narbeck Wetland Sanctuary
is a 50 acre natural drainage site in the urban western portion of Snohomish County in the State of Washington, USA. For many decades simply a neglected swampland, it has now been developed into an exemplary wetland model, the result of an ambitious and foresighted program to help counterbalance the effects of the urbanization and development by streamlining the process that created it.

Narbeck Wetland Sanctuary Park has been developed as a living example to illustrate the need for runoff and erosion control, habitat for wildlife species of all kinds, and a lifetime of environmental education and involvement for all of the people in the communities in its region.

TO TRAILHEAD: I5 north or south, take SR527 to Seaway. Just past 75th on the right.
