- If you're looking for an amazing trail with EPIC views check out this highest rated loop trail in Washington State. Chain Lakes Loop is a 7.2 mile loop trail located 1.5 hours away from Bellingham Washington in Mount Baker Wilderness.
This hike is for all skill levels from beginner to advanced and can easily be completed in 3-4 hours. If you're feeling a little more adventurous, many choose this trail for an overnight backpacking trip.
I saw many solo women backpackers on this trail and some who were out for their first solo trip.
Comment below if you've been here! and stay tuned for more beginner friendly hiking trails with amazing views. Short and sweet is what I like!

Wow I love ur content so much adding this to my bucket this for the summer !!
I've done this 4 times. Go in the fall. The colors are outrageously beautiful. One of my top 10 here in the PNW.
And from Artist Point, do this hike counter clockwise to avoid that crazy elevation at the end of the hike.
WORD! We hiked this last summer - clockwise! That's a tough finish. Planning another hike - counter-clockwise this time.
The PNW is pretty special, literally looks like a scene out of a fairytale
This place is unreal!
This looks absolutely incredible! Never even heard of this trail until coming across this video, but will definitely be adding this to my Washington state bucket list. Thank you!
Looks like such an incredible hike, thanks for sharing it!
What a dream!!
Opening shots are literally breathtaking, what a heavenly beautiful trail! 🔥🔥
Thank you for taking the time to comment. I really appreciate it
@@Taryn_Summer It is a beautiful trail, I hiked it twice in 2018 when my hiking club had a campout in the north cascades. Wildflowers, amazing views, lakes. It has nearly everything except for one thing, old growth. I studied northwest trees in college and became an expert. I love all old growth and love exploring tree groves of both lower and higher elevation old growth.
That's a pika! And, oh no, now everyone knows about this place! Just kidding. :)
Pika, got it :) thank you!
Nearby Ptarmigan Ridge is better than this imo but chain lakes loop is pretty dope
There are NO pines at that elevation. They are evergreens but not pines!!
