Even better, the picturesque trail is easy for hikers of all ages and all skill levels, making it a must hike at least once.
You'll be treated to jaw-dropping views of Mount Rainier before you even embark on the 1.1-mile Nisqually Vista Trail in Ashford.

One of the biggest selling points of the easy trail is it's downright gorgeous - no matter what season you visit. Spring and summer mean fields of colorful wildflowers and lush greenery.
