Trail Overview

Church Mountain Road is an easy 5-mile round-trip gravel road that provides access to the Church Mountain hiking trailhead. From the trailhead, the hiking trail is approximately 8 miles round-trip with a ~3,800 feet elevation gain and offers stunning views of Mount Baker and the surrounding peaks. The road is mostly suitable for low-clearance 2WD vehicles, with one notable exception: a section near a waterfall that may challenge the approach and departure angles of lower vehicles. High-clearance vehicles will have no difficulty navigating this spot.
