Where to find trails and drives near-ish seattle

Does anyone know of any good lists of trails (with difficulties listed) or just fun scenic drives in and around the seattle area?

I need to get out of the damn house, want to drive someplace fun but not have to prepare. I'm bored of my normal things.

 

Try the regional forums, you'll probably find someone local to you

 

Trails Offroad has some pretty good stuff available for free. Not all of it is free though - https://www.trailsoffroad.com/.

I also use OnX Off-road. You can give the free trial a shot and then decide if it's worth it for you to pay the subscription fee.

 

I’ve been researching the same thing. Pm me and I’ll pull up what I have found so far. Looked for local threads, but all I really kept finding was OR.

 

Getting into rainy season, you may need to go across the Cascades. After winter there is the Cascades overland trail system.

 

check out mountain loop highway out by darrington
-Greenwater is a good area
-stampede pass off i90 (prob some snow now)
-salmon la sac out by cle elum

There’s lots of places - go visit the northwest regional forum and more people can suggest places

Tahuya used to be my stomping grounds back in the day. Would have loved to take the truck to Moses Lake, but never made it out there.
