Seattle Tree Walks is a free mobile app developed by the City of Seattle to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Earth Day. With this app, users can now explore Seattle's urban forest from the comfort of their own homes or while taking a stroll in their neighborhood. The app provides a self-guided and easy-to-use experience, allowing users to learn more about the trees that make Seattle's urban forest unique and important.

The app offers over 15 different routes to choose from, with more options expected to be added in the coming months. Each route is designed to provide an engaging experience for users, whether they are budding botanists or simply interested in the role that trees play in creating a safer, healthier, and more vibrant city. Users can gain basic tree identification skills and also delve into the deep historical and cultural connections between trees and people. Additionally, the app provides insights into how trees are impacted by climate change.

Seattle Tree Walks is part of Trees for Seattle, the umbrella program for all of the City of Seattle's urban forestry efforts. Their commitment is to ensure that Seattle's urban forest remains healthy, vital, and continuously growing.
