Sky Valley Hiking

Home to everything you'd expect from the PNW.

Towering evergreens, cool waterfall pools, and hundreds of miles of hiking trails. Reflect on an alpine lake. Get that fire lookout photo op in the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest.

See for yourself why they call this the Wild Sky Wilderness.

Recreating Responsibly is more than a reminder to stay on designated trails, to pack out what we pack in, or to minimize human impact on our natural resources and surroundings. To us, it’s a commitment to keeping Snohomish County and the region sustainable as both a destination and a home. As such, it’s our obligation to preserve and protect, repair and restore, and to leave Mother Nature in a better state than we found it. It’s a way of life for those of us who call this area home, and we ask and expect the same from those who visit. Please enjoy responsibly! -Thank You
