Route Description for Grassy Knoll Trail
The Grassy Knoll is a fine knoll to spend some time on, looking out over Mount Rainier, Mount Adams, Mount Hood, and the surrounding forest. It’s a short hike up, but it’s steep enough to leave you feeling accomplished. This hike is especially nice when the wildflowers are blooming.
Beginning from the trailhead, take Grassy Knoll Trail (not the forest road to the right of it) roughly north. The climbing starts pretty much right away, and the grade increases as you approach the top of the ridge. Once you crest the ridge, you’ll enjoy a bit of a flatter stretch before the final push to the top, where the footing can be a bit loose on the rocks.
Take in the views and then retrace your steps. Intrepid adventurers can continue to Big Huckleberry on the trail that continues northwest from the Grassy Knoll.
