Solo travel pushes you outside of your comfort zone, letting you boost your confidence and learn about yourself while enjoying unforgettable adventures. The next time you’re looking for a solo trip to take, try out one of these in the Pacific Northwest.
The Sierra Cascades Bicycle Route runs parallel to the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail, tracking from Sumas, WA to Tecate, CA for 2,398.1 miles. This trail is broken down into five sections, with the first two stretching across Washington and Oregon. The trail offers many starting and stopping points, letting you choose exactly how far you’d like to bike and what scenery you’d like to enjoy.
Get off the grid and breathe in the fresh air along the region’s many coastal, mountainous drives. One of the most popular is the Cascade Loop, a scenic drive spanning 440 miles in Washington. There are so many pitstops you can take along the way. If you’re an outdoor enthusiast, consider taking a stop to hike four miles to the 265-ft. Wallace Falls.
Millions of kids grew up playing Oregon Trail on their computers, and you can bring this childhood favorite back to life on the real Oregon Trail in Baker City, Oregon. Visit the city and hike the 2.5-mile loop to see a former wagon encampment from the original Oregon Trail.
Northwest Washington houses an incredible array of islands in the Salish Sea, right in between Victoria, Canada and Seattle. You can take day trips to the islands via ferry to enjoy the temperate year-round climate and take on a relaxing afternoon (or two). On the islands, stroll through rocky beaches while enjoying incredible views of native wildlife.
