Washington Trails Association’s Families Go Hiking program is all about helping families enjoy time together on the trail. Hiking is a fantastic way to combine quality family time with exercise and exploration of all the natural world has to offer kids of all ages.
Our Families Go Hiking clinics teach the basics of hiking with kids of all ages, including planning a fun trip they’ll enjoy, the best trail food, safety tips, and what to bring along. We’ll share the ten best trails for kids in Washington, plus how to choose your own hiking trail that is suited for small children. Kids activities provided too, so children are welcome to attend the clinics!
