Saturday Morning Hike - Scherrer Road Trail, Granite Falls, WA

Summer walks and hikes are starting earlier to beat the heat and the crowds. At this time of year, remember sun screen, water for yourself and dogs, as well, bug spray is a good idea. Never plan to leave your dog in the car while you run errands before/after or stop for lunch.

There is not a lot of info on this hike so i will link to my YouTube video of when i did it earlier this year. It is a gated road evolving into a trail along the Pilchuck River. Lightly travelled and peaceful. Fairly flat, gentle incline. With a nice river access beach about 2.5 miles along. Wear a good trail shoe.
