Show Notes

What makes a hike spooky? Is it the dark, misty environment of a Northwest fall day? Or the old, abandoned buildings sometimes found on the trail?

On this week’s episode of Peak Northwest, we investigate five of the spookiest hiking areas around Oregon, just in time for the dark season.

Our picks range from the Oregon coast to the high desert, with plenty of deep, dark forests in between. For those who want to get a little creeped out while exploring outside (or those who don’t), these are the places to know.

Here are some highlights from this week’s show:

  • Is there anything scarier than the dark, concrete tunnels of an old military battery?
  • One Portland attraction has been haunting hikers for generations.
  • Caving is literally a descent into darkness.
  • Why wildfire burn areas are totally eerie.
