Hiking Lace Up for Adventure
Sitting amidst the Mt Hood National Forest, Timberline Lodge is a breathtaking starting point for hiking trails around the mountain. With hiking trails that begin right outside the lodge doors and dozens of scenic Oregon hikes within a short drive, there is a trail for hikers of all skill levels.
Views Made Easy
Timberline Lodge has easy-going hiking trails accessible around the lodge for our overnight guests and day visitors to enjoy throughout the summer (weather permitting). For a slightly more challenging hike, you can walk a mile up Mt Hood and enjoy the views from Silcox Hut and the Palmer chair lift. Due to snow melt, summer hiking at the Lodge's elevation typically becomes accessible around mid-July.
Beyond Timberline
Looking to hit the trail early this summer? Some of our favorite nearby hikes that tend to open up first include the stunning Mirror Lake Loop, the waterfall-filled Tamanawas Falls Trail, and the lush, river-hugging Old Salmon River Trail.

The Call of the Wild
The Pacific Crest Trail spans 2,650 miles from the Mexican border to Canada. Timberline Lodge intersects the PCT and makes for a welcome oasis and resupply station for thousands of PCT hikers all summer long.
