Live near the Emerald City or traveling there soon? Then you must get the recently released Third Edition of Falcon Guides Best Hikes Seattle. Whether you’re looking for a view of the city skyline along the Alki Beach Trail or a view of the wildflowers on the trail to Surprise Lake or the epic views of Mount Rainer from the strenuous Mason Lake and Mount Defiance hike, this book has it covered. Listing 42 hikes within an hour’s drive of Seattle, Peter Stekel clearly outlines all the need-to-know details: directions, distance, hiking time, difficulty rating, trail surface, trail maps, and more.
