Reviews
  • [The Urban Trails] guidebooks serve as an awesome tool for finding hidden hiking gems and pockets of greenspace close to home…. The perfect size for throwing in your pack, and full of great information.
    — Washington Trails Association
  • Now's the perfect season for another of the pocket-sized "Urban Trails" guides from Mountaineers Books and prolific scribe Craig Romano. While upland trails are still snowbound, grab his recently published Urban Trails: Olympia for a pocketful of ideas on where to go for a lowland, late-winter or early spring hike around the scenic South Sound.
