About Gold Bar
Gold Bar is located on the Skykomish River between Sultan and Index, connected by U.S. Route 2. The population was 2,403 at the 2020 census.
Gold Bar is known as a white-water rafting destination for those seeking to float the Skykomish River. One of the most popular low elevation hikes in the metro Seattle area, the trail to Wallace Falls, is located on the north margin of the city. More than 160,000 people visit Wallace Falls State Park annually.
People traveling to and from the area can take Community Transit's Route 270/271, which runs between Gold Bar, Sultan, Monroe, Snohomish, and Everett. Gold Bard Park & Ride is an option for riders, too. Community Transit's DART paratransit service and Vanpool are also options for local riders.

Transit customers visit the RideStore for a variety of customer service needs, such as lost and found, purchase and reloading of ORCA Cards and DART paratransit tickets, and trip planning information.
The temporary relocation allows for construction of a new and improved RideStore at Lynnwood Transit Center. The change is part of Community Transit’s longer-term plan to deliver the most significant changes to Snohomish County’s transit system in decades. With light rail coming to Snohomish County in 2024, transit customers can expect more local service, expansion of the Swift bus rapid transit network, and new connections to light rail.
The RideStore will be located near Ash Way PR for about a year until Lynnwood Link light rail opens.
