Horse Lake Preserve offers a wonderland of hiking and biking in the transition zone from steppe to forest. From the very nice trailhead, one can take in a quick, but great viewpoint that looks over the entire Wenatchee Valley and the mountains beyond. Or you can take some serpentine trails up the slopes. Or take a more direct ascent on the gated ranch road. My favorite trail is called Glacier View. See the sweep from the Enchantments to Glacier Peak. Continue all the way up Horse Lake Mtn if you wish.
Amazing view of the Wenatchee River, Columbia River. Flowers galore all topped with a beautiful day. Awesome place to live.
Start figuring out your mountains and the feel of a tail on the edge of cliff...after you make it to the top there is tons of access to a variety of trails.
Fun easy hike close to town. The old homesite is really interesting and the views are pretty! This trail is good for any levels!
Wildflowers light up hillsides with color. Great time of year to enjoy the foothill trails.
Beautiful view! You can see 3 of the local historic barns from the overlook. There is a bathroom available. There is a trail that is easy to walk and trails for bikes, horses and pets on leash. They will close it for the winter starting November 1st.
Beautiful trail for walking and biking.
Pretty view. Great place to pull over and just take it all in
Trail was clear and easy to follow. The view was spectacular.
The trails are great
My dogs love this place. It is mixed use so be ready for lots of mountain bikes.
Hiking, Mtn biking, or just have a picnic at the top and enjoy the 360 degree views
Great fast spring ride before the dusty season. Trails are smooth except for some eroded switchbacks that could use some drainage design.
Beautiful views overlooking Wenatchee and the Columbia River. Easy access and short trail from parking lot.
Very good MTB trails beginner. Easy climb with good downhill
Beware of road conditions--unpaved 3 mile road to the trailhead can be treacherous after any amount of rain in less than a 4 wheel drive. beautiful scenery and plenty of trail.
