Hiking
The Trail of the Cedars is a true gem and natural monument in Northern Cascades National Park. Follow the interpretive trail along the beautiful Skagit River through old-growth cedar forest. Several signs along the walk will tell you about the history of this ancient place or give you information on the resident vegetation and animals. Besides the giant cedars, you walk under maples, paper birch, Douglas Fir, and Pacific Yew.
