Fen Way Boardwalk is a short, low-elevation mountain biking route in Washington's Millersylvania Memorial State Park, managed by State Park and Recreation. The boardwalk is an out-and-back ride of about 0.2 miles, with a total elevation gain of 29 feet from a low point of 202 feet to a high of 253 feet. The climb is steep at the start, with a 15% grade at about 0.05 miles in. Summer is the most comfortable time to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Olympia show July and August highs around 78°F with only about five wet days a month, while winter brings highs in the mid-40s and rain on roughly 20 days a month. Old Growth Lane, a mountain biking route, and Maple Hollow Loop, a hike, both sit about 0.1 mile away. The Fitness Trail and Bentley Trail are each about 0.6 mile off.
