Explore the San Juan Islands with confidence through descriptive maps, clear route narratives, and easy-to-follow walking guidance.
No GPS? No problem. With this book, you’ll always know what’s ahead.
Discover the San Juan Islands at a slower, more rewarding pace with a practical hiking and walking companion created for travelers who want to understand the landscape as they explore it.
From the forested heights of Orcas Island to the coastal landscapes of San Juan Island and the quieter scenery of Lopez Island, this book brings together trails, viewpoints, wildlife encounters, local history, island culture, and practical planning advice in one approachable companion.
You’ll discover how the islands differ, how to prepare for changing weather and coastal conditions, how to plan ferry travel and multi-day adventures, and how to choose walks that match your time and hiking ability. Along the way, descriptive trail narratives help you understand the character of each route, the terrain you may encounter, important landmarks, and the way the landscape unfolds as you walk.
The dedicated Descriptive Trail Maps & Step-by-Step Walking Guides chapter adds another layer of route awareness. These visual maps are designed to help you understand the progression of a journey, major landmarks, trail sections, and the relationship between different parts of a route. They are intended for orientation and journey understanding—not as GPS replacements, precise navigation systems, or technical tracking tools.
