Hiking

The trails of the beautiful Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest can entice anyone to get outdoors. From smooth paths meandering through deep quiet forests to challenging ascents up a boulder-studded mountain, opportunities abound for every skill level.

Backpacking offers getaways to places few people ever see. With hundreds of miles of trails, hikers can explore areas where they encounter nature in solitude.

A variety of trails can deliver an interesting day hike on the forest. Some are accessible for people with disabilities and some offer a rugged hike.
