Uhhh...This hike is hard. Colchuck Lake is 130 miles east of Seattle and about a 2.5 to 3 hour drive. It is highly regarded as one of the, if not the most, beautiful destination hikes in all of Washington. But that doesn't mean it is easy. It is also one of the hardest hikes in Washington with more than 2,400+ feet of elevation gain and at least a 9-mile roundtrip (I did 13 with all of my side quests). That's not the only hard thing about it either. Because of its popularity, during peak season (June-October), the parking lot has been known to fill up by 5:30 a.m. Make sure to have a backup hike planned if you can't get parking for Colchuck. Make sure to pack plenty of water and some food as well. Please be prepared for the strenuous hike! Just one more time...it's really hard. Go do stuff. Thanks for stopping by.

It took me and friends 5 hours going up, and 6 hours going down. My friend injured her knee. The going down is never ending trail and yeah it made us disoriented.

That sucks your friend got injured. That would be an absolutely brutal hike down! It sucks under normal circumstances. It seriously never ever ever ever ever ends! Glad y'all made it out safe!

Wait 13 miles? So you did make a wrong turn somewhere right because isn’t it supposed to be just under 9 miles? Now I’m scared I’m doing this hike in September and I’m severely out of shape myself lol 😅

I hiked all around the lake and a little farther. I also did a couple little spur trails on the way up. I would say that you will probably do around 10 miles roundtrip if you just hike to the lake and back. It is a hard hike, but if you take plenty of water, you will be fine. Don't rush. Enjoy the scenery. September is a great time to see this beautiful place in person! Good Luck!!!

I've done this hike a few times. This was the first time I did it at the beginning of my hiking season instead of at the end. But also, yeah, running a half-marathon is hard, but running a full-marathon is harder. :) I don't think I would enjoy doing it all in a day. I want to stop too much and look at stuff and enjoy it. Still hoping to one day win a lottery camping spot. Fingers crossed.
