Link Light Rail

Experience Seattle’s Link light rail.  No need to worry about navigating busy highways, finding parking, or dealing with traffic jams. Simply hop on the light rail, and within 70 minutes, you’ll be in Lynnwood. It’s the perfect way to sit back, relax, and enjoy the scenic views without the stress of driving. With trains running every 8 to 10 minutes during peak hours, this reliable and efficient service bypasses traffic congestion on I-5.

After arriving at the Lynnwood Transit Center, Uber/Lyft or taxi to the Tulalip Casino Resort (24 minutes).  Link light rail ticket is $3.  Taxi is estimated to be $65 – 85.

Other options would be to take an Uber/Lyft or to rent a car and drive.  Depending on your arrival time, the journey would take a little over an hour to make the 50 mile drive on the I-5 freeway.

By convening once more on the continent, we deepen our pilina with Indigenous relatives, share ʻike and mana‘o, and build pathways of opportunity that empower our people worldwide.
