Welcome to Hiking the Pacific Northwest
Different Types of Hikes in the Pacific Northwest
How many different types of hiking are there? Everyone has their own opinion on this, but I broke them done into these three areas below. I recently moved to this side of the country and discovered what the Pacific Northwest has to offer. I have never hiked before, so this is my way of sharing my experience and more.
Some of the hikes I have done that can be done in less than a day. These can range from an hour to an entire day. Check out some of the best hikes in the area!
A few days in the wild does a person some good! You get to choose where you go and almost always have views that you don't expect. Get out there, but be prepared. Let me know if you know some good hikes to try out.
I may not camp very often, but there are plenty of sites around the Pacific Northwest to camp at with hikes right beside you. They may not be obvious, so hope this helps with planning your next camping trip!

While hiking the Pacific Northwest, there are many areas where you can fish right during your hike. Though, this isn't the focus of 'Hiking in the Pacific Northwest', some of the best angling requires a bit of hiking to get to including in the river! Feel free to check out some of the hikes where fishing is a must!
Hiking is fun for the entire family, but please respect Mother Nature and make sure to follow "Do Not Leave A Trace" Rule. We need to protect the forest, mountains, rivers, and more for future generations!
If we all do our part, we will always be able to enjoy the views and hikes for years to come.
