Hiking

Before SUVs, snowmobiles, OHVs, and other motorized vehicles, the only way to see the intricacies of the park was by foot. Today, these fundamental activities are still the primary means of and perhaps the most natural and relaxed way to explore the parks. Whether you choose a short stroll through the woods, a day-long hike, or an overnight expedition into the backcountry, please remember to keep the philosophy of Leave No Trace in mind: leave the trail as it was before you got there. Trails range from wheel-chair accessible to advanced, so be sure to ask questions ahead of time. Pick a comfy pair of hiking boots and click here for more information about trails in the parks.
