Full Description
Washington, the Evergreen state, is known for its lush landscapes of forests and mountains. But you don't have to go all the way into the backcountry to experience what the state has to offer. In Urban Hikes Washington you'll hit the trail to discover the landmarks and hotspots that shape the state's cities and towns. From arboretum trails to picturesque waterfront walks, this guide explores 40-50 urban hiking trails throughout the state.
Drawing on their extensive travel knowledge of the state, authors Brandon Fralic and Rachel Wood curate a guide to not only family-friendly footpaths, but to the state's culinary and gastronomic delights. Take in the sites of Expo '74 while walking Spokane's Riverfront Park, marvel at the landscape architecture of Washington Park Arboretum in Seattle, or brewery-hop after a stroll to Downtown Bellingham from Boulevard Park.
Each hike includes trail GPS coordinates and waypoints, detailed hike descriptions, maps, and easy-to-find trailhead directions, along with excellent color photos and travel tips. Hit the trail (or the pavement) and explore Washington!
