break free of the winter doldrums.<\/p>\n<p>And if you ask us, nothing does the trick quite like a hike.<\/p>\n<p>Besides a stay in our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fridayharborhouse.com\/accommodations.php\">comfortable guestrooms<\/a>, of course!<\/p>\n<p>The San Juan Islands are a hiker&#8217;s paradise, with plenty of opportunities for fun adventures and lasting memories.<\/p>\n<p>It was a tough call, but we narrowed the list down to five of our favorite hikes.<\/p>\n<p>And a quick note on our difficulty grades you&#8217;ll see below: while the hikes range from Easy to Challenging, this is simply as they relate to each other.<\/p>\n<p>Even Challenging ones do not require any sort of significant mountaineering experience, and are suitable for hikers of nearly all experience levels.<\/p>\n<p>Just remember to stay hydrated!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-791\"
