What We Love About The Oyster Dome Hike In The PNW!
Hey AC community! We’re coming in hot (and burning… lol) with a hike recommendation for you! Have you hiked Oyster Dome in Burlington, WA? This hike is definitely a "must do" in our book.
We love the Oyster Dome Hike because:
It has an amazing view at the top (and a long the trail)!
There is a lot of site seeing and different activities you can do along the trail. This keeps it interesting every step of the way!
The trail is marked super well making it easy to stay on course and know where to go.
This is a great trail for small or big groups or even solo hikers.
The trail is marked as "moderate" based on the AllTrails app. In our opinion, this hike is on the harder end of the "moderate" scale compared to other "moderate" hikes we have done.
It’s definitely a good outdoor leisurely workout with beautiful views!
Tips & Tricks:
Educate yourself about this trail before going. We use the AllTrails app (and know there are a lot of other tools to use). The app shows you all the details about the hike, allows you to track your course while you're hiking, shows you the direction to go (even tho this trail is marked really well, it might come in handy), shows you pictures, and oh so much more.
Start the hike earlier in the day, it took us about 4-5 hours to do.
Bring lots of water because you are working hard every step of the way.
Have good supportive shoes, it's quite an elevation gain and drop!
Go with a friend or group, it's always fun to spend quality time with our people!
Bring food, there are so many great view points and places to sit and take a break...perfect to have a snack or a picnic!
HAVE FUN!!!
