Join us for a hike along the stunning Gold Mint Trail in beautiful Hatcher Pass. This out-and-back hike is perfect for anyone wanting to enjoy open air, mountain views, and time on trail without a huge climb. We'll cover 4–6 miles roundtrip with a gentle 780 feet of elevation gain, making this a great option for newer hikers, families with kids, or anyone looking for a slower-paced adventure.
The trail follows a scenic river corridor surrounded by mountains and water! Plenty of spots to stop for photos, snacks, and connection with others in the group.
👟 What to Bring:
Comfortable hiking boots
Water & light snacks
Layers for changing mountain weather
Poles, ice spikes
🕒 Estimated time on trail: 3 hours
This is a great hike to bring a friend, meet new TrailMates, or simply enjoy a day of movement in a beautiful place. Everyone is welcome here.
