Well, how about a paw-friendly surface to trot on? Grass and sandy soil are a lot more appealing than asphalt and rocks. A variety of hikes is always good - long ones for athletic dogs and short ones for the less adventurous canine. Dogs always enjoy a refreshing place to swim as well.

So what are you waiting for? Your dog will want to hike across the Mile-High Swinging Bridge (page 113), hike to the grave of the first white settler in the Blue Ridge Mountains (page 29), hike to a set for The Last of the Mohicans (page 19), hike to see champion Toggenberg goats (page 33)...
