Hidden Lake (Lake Wenatchee) — Saturday, May. 25, 2024

Central Cascades > Stevens Pass - East

This is a really nice trail, not too narrow or steep, there are some roots and rocks to be aware of, but overall, very manageable. The biggest obstacle was a large tree over the trail, which was a little awkward climbing over. I'm 5'2", and the tree was about chest high, but I was able to clamber over it. 

Our kids, 11 and almost 3, really enjoyed it. The 3 year old made it all the way to the top by himself, but got a ride from dad on the way down. 

The best part of this hike for me is the trail that goes around the lake. It's a little harder to pick out in some spots, and there are creeks and waterfalls that are more difficult to navigate in some places, but they're also what make it such a beautiful trail. 

We didn't take the 3 year old around, as he was done, but when our daughter was about 7, we walked halfway around to the bigger waterfall. 

This is definitely a hike we'll do again! 

I love finding these in the forest!
You can find this little creek by following the trail left around the lake.
