my favorite hikes for mount hood views

Mount Hood is such a stunning destination in Oregon and deserving of any bucket list! While you can drive up to the top (and I'd recommend it!), there are some great spots at a lower elevation that give you the really epic views of the full profile of mount hood.

For an easy option, head to Lake Trillium where technically you don't even need to hike to see the view! But I'd still recommend you do a loop around the lake. For a more challenging option, head to Mirror Lake, where you take a more strenuous hike to the lake with views of the top of Mount Hood.
