Updated: Nov 4, 2020


The Pacific Northwest is a beautiful place in the fall! There are so many AMAZING ways to get outside and enjoy the colorful foliage and the crisp air.


Here are some family friendly hikes for you to explore this season:






Skyline Divide

Location: North Cascades - West Slope

Round Trip: 9 miles, Elevation Gain: 2500 ft., Highest Point: 5450 ft

Fall feature: colorful meadows, views. Many hikers don’t go beyond the first viewpoint, but take the time to walk up the ridge for stunning North Cascade views. Better yet, haul up a backpack and take in the fall constellations on a clear (cold) night.
