Hiking Trails we Recommend
Cowboy Mountain Nature Trail
We have a beautiful 2.5 mile nature trail that makes its way from the top of the Hogsback Express chairlift down to the Pacific Crest Trail. Take a Scenic Chairlift Ride up and hike all the way down or just walk a little ways and ride the lift back down to the base area. The nature trail winds its way downhill through beautiful mountain meadows, talus slopes, and alpine forests to join with the world famous Pacific Crest Trail. At the intersection with the Pacific Crest Trail, take a left heading north and downhill to get back to the base area. Hikers will often see alpine wildflowers, Pika, Marmots, Ravens, Mountain Hemlock, Alaska Yellow Cedar, and the occasional Sasquatch.
Pacific Crest Trail
This world famous trail runs more than 2650 miles from Mexico to Canada. A 2 mile hike south will take you to the Cascade Crest and breathtaking vistas of the Chiwaukum Mountains and the Alpine Lakes Wilderness.
Other Hiking
Stevens Pass is centrally located between the Alpine Lakes, Henry M. Jackson,Wild Sky and Glacier Peak Wilderness areas and is located on the border between the spectacular Mt. Baker Snoqualmie and Okanogan Wenatchee National Forests. These wilderness and national forest lands contain trail networks for hikers and explorers of all ability levels to enjoy.
Please Note: Pacific Crest Trail parking for south bound hiking in Lot E only. Vehicles left in other lots will be towed at the owner's expense.
PCT THRU-HIKER RESUPPLY
For those that will be passing through the resort as you near the end of a long journey along the PCT, we offer you a place to ship and pickup a resupply package.
Note: We are happy to offer a pick-up location for PCT hikers to send packages to this season after we were unable to during the 2020 hiking season because of COVID-19. We are still asking all hikers and guests of the mountain to adhere to COVID-19 protocols, including physical distancing and mask wearing when physical distancing isn’t possible. As local and health guidance changes, we will make updates to these policies.
