The Top Trails Series

Wilderness Press

When Wilderness Press published Sierra North in 1967, no other trail guide like it existed for the Sierra backcountry. The first print run sold out in less than two months, and its success heralded the beginning of Wilderness Press. In the past 50 years, we have expanded our territories to cover California, Alaska, Hawaii, the Southwest, the Pacific Northwest, New England, Canada, and Baja California.

Wilderness Press continues to publish comprehensive, accurate, and readable outdoor books. Hikers, backpackers, kayakers, skiers, snowshoers, climbers, cyclists, and trail runners rely on Wilderness Press for accurate outdoor adventure information.

Top Trails

In its Top Trails guides, Wilderness Press has paid special attention to organization so that you can find the perfect hike each and every time. Whether you’re looking for a steep trail to test yourself on or a walk in the park, a romantic waterfall, or a city view, Top Trails will lead you there.

Each Top Trails guide contains trails for everyone. The trails selected provide a sampling of the best the region has to offer. These are the “must-do” hikes, walks, runs and bike rides, with every feature of the area represented.

Every book in the Top Trails series offers:

•The Wilderness Press commitment to accuracy and reliability

•Ratings and rankings for each trail

•Distances and approximate times

•Easy-to-follow trail notes

•Maps and permit information
