Skip the long drive and immerse yourself in the wilderness-like forest and trails at Mount Spokane State Park, just 30 miles from the city. As the largest state park in the Washington, it’s no surprise it features so many miles of hiking and mountain biking trails that you could spend days or weeks trying to traverse them all, plus the park boasts some of the best and most accessible huckleberry picking around.
Instead of limiting your Mount Spokane experience to a day trip, plan to pitch a tent at the park campground under a canopy of stars, or treat yourself to a cozy private condo rental. Then get up the next day and do it all over again—without the park commute.
