Best Hikes with Views in the Northwest 

The Northwest is an area of stunning scenic beauty.  You’ll find many places to hike, but these are my favorites for the best views.  The best time to go is in the Spring or Summer when the most wild flowers are blooming. All of these hikes are in the Columbia Gorge except for Little Bandera, which is near Seattle.

hiking trails

1. Catherine Creek, Arch Rock Loops. This 2.1 mile hike has amazing views of a canyon and Mt. Hood. Plus tons of beautiful wildflowers!

2. Dog Mountain. This Washington hike is 7.3 miles long. You’ll be able to see Mount St. Helens and Mt. Hood! If you bike at the right time of the year, you will find hundreds of wildflowers dotting the hillsides. They are so pretty! This area can have a lot of ticks so make sure you check out this article on tick prevention!

3. Tom McCall Preserve. This Oregon hike is 3.2 miles with views Mt. Hood,  Mt. Adams and the Columbia River. This hike will also have a wide array of wildflowers for great picture opportunities!

    Stunning photos! I used to go hiking with my dad (he was a professional photographer) and it was always so much fun.

    We used to, when we lived in Northern Maine. There was a place in Medway Maine with a breath taking view of Mount Kahtadin. Very lovely place.

    I live in a rural area so I get to hike to the mailbox every day.
    I’ve run into snakes, bugs, rabbits, armadillos, turtles, skunks, and even a roadrunner once so it’s still sort of an adventure. 🙂

    We love to hike but rarely do so. Love to hike in the desert SW mountains and almost everyplace else.

    I live in the Pacific Northwest and we have so many wonderful hiking and bike trails that I think are the prettiest in the Nation. I like the ones close to where I live. There is a gorgeous hiking trail that is Called the Centennial trail.

    It’s so hot here in Florida that I don’t do much hiking. Although, these trails look to be quite awesome. If I lived there, I’d for sure check them out. 🙂
