Letโ€™s Go Hiking!

I live for travel books/guides like this!! My son and I love getting out and finding new and fun places to hike, and Iโ€™m already finding so many more hidden treasures in ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ ๐—ง๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ถ๐—น๐˜€ ๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ ๐—œ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜€.

This authoritative travel guideโ€•the next in National Geographicโ€™s best-selling 5,000 Ideas seriesโ€•takes you from the coast of Florida to the peaks of Wyoming on a series of epic hiking and walking adventures. So grab your hiking boots and get ready to explore 100 trails around all 50 states and Canada.

In these informative pages, youโ€™ll find National Geographicโ€™s recommendations for superlative hikes, as well as tips for wildlife spotting, scenic picnic locales, routes with a view, camp sites, and off-trail activities nearby. Plus, youโ€™ll discover alternative routes to extend your trek or tackle shorter lengths of some of the countryโ€™s most iconic journeys, like the Appalachian Trail. With each itinerary youโ€™ll find practical planning advice for when to go and what to expect when you arrive.

Inspiring and comprehensive, this book offers something for everyone, from beginners looking for an easy day-hike (the tow path along the C&O Canal in Maryland) to advanced trekkers seeking multi-week excursions (the famed multi-state Continental Divide Trail). Youโ€™ll also discover:
