Tidepooling

Kids love to go tidepooling on Second Beach. Make sure to bring extra clothes and a few sand toys to play with - and watch the little ones carefully around the rocks, waves and sea creatures. Photo by Susan Elderkin.

Franklin Falls

Franklin Falls is a short and easy hike with a towering waterfall at the end. The spray (and shade) can make a warm day cold. Make sure you have a jacket in your backpack! Photo by Susan Elderkin

Hidden Lake

Choose destinations that kids will like, such as lakes and waterfalls. Aidan spent about an hour throwing tiny rocks into Hidden Lake. Photo by Susan Elderkin.

Young children dawdle on the trail. Pack patience, extra time and flexibility into your hike. Trail to Twin Lakes, photo by Susan Elderkin.
