Mountain Trails

While this trail guide focuses on lowland trails, there are plenty of higher-elevation trails within and near King County that can be ridden. Many of these are already mentioned in other horse-trail guides which focus on mountain riding and horse-camping, such as those listed below:

  • Trail Riding & Pack Trips in Washington, Dick and LaDonna Woodfin. Frontier Publishing, 1998.
  • The Backcountry Horseman's Guide to Washington, John and Roberta Wolcott. Falcon Press Publishing Co., 1995.
  • Trail Busters: A trail guide to Oregon & Washington's most scenic backcountry, Josie Rusho. Outpost Books, 2006.
