For this new and fully revised edition, veteran author Bonnie Henderson partnered with Zach Urness, hiker, writer, and parent of young children. Best Hikes with Kids: Oregon gets kids excited about the outdoors early, and creates in them a passion that lasts a lifetime. This second edition covers 121 hikes, most within an hour's drive of major population centers—such as Portland, Salem, Ashland, and Bend. Other features of the guide include:

  • New "Great Getaways"—weekend or vacation destinations around the state with hiking trails and other family-fun activities
  • "Best of" lists that highlight groups of top 5 hikes with special features to help parents select trips their kids will enjoy
  • Improved access details, including GPS trailhead coordinates and info on permits and fees
  • Notes about barrier-free or ADA-accessible trails and suitability for jogging strollers
  • Tips and strategies for hiking with kids—how to motivate them, what's appropriate for different ages, sidebars with games, nature facts, and more
  • Concise, accurate driving directions
  • Full color photos throughout
