About Seattle
Emerald City by Electric
Seattle is layered — geographically, culturally, and ecologically. Puget Sound to the west, Lake Washington to the east, and the Cascade Range visible on a clear day from downtown. The city's hills, waterways, and surrounding forests give it a natural drama that's unusual for a major tech hub, and an e-bike or electric boat is the best way to access all of it.
The Burke-Gilman Trail connects the University District to Ballard and beyond — 18 miles of protected trail that's served Seattle cyclists for decades and is now heavily trafficked by e-bike commuters and visitors alike. The Lake Union waterfront is lined with electric kayak and electric boat rental operations, and guided tours of the lake provide unobstructed views of the Space Needle that the tourist sites completely fail to offer.
Puget Sound Electric boat tours explore the working waterfront, harbor seals, and the dramatic ferry traffic that's part of everyday Seattle life. The Olympic Peninsula — ferry-accessible from downtown — opens up old-growth rainforest e-bike riding that's unlike anything available in the lower 48. Seattle rewards the visitor who gets off the grid and onto two wheels.
