64 Fun Walks and Day Hikes
If you’ve never experienced the beauty of a rain forest, start with the Hall of Mosses Trail in Olympic National Park. For both beauty and adventure in Wyoming, you can’t do better than the journey to Inspiration Point via the Jenny Lake Boat Shuttle. And for my dollar, the Sylvan Lake Trail in the Black Hills is the best short hike in South Dakota.
These are three of the 64 fun walks and day hikes I describe in the 2025 update to 1001 Fun Things To Do in Retirement. I’ve tried to help readers visualize the “highways of the gods,” which I refer to in this blog. Now, just looking at my list has me planning some trips of my own.
I hope you’ll check it out.
And now until midnight on December 1 (2024), the e-book version is just $2.99 (66% off)!
*Tomorrow I’m blogging about walking with others.
