Pacific Northwest in the ‘Trips’ series from Lonely Planet; exploring a range of short and long-distance routes in specific regions of the USA, including themed itineraries, road trips and walks that help travellers explore the local area. Frank and informal in style, the guides cover a range of thematic trips that provide inspiration for those wanting a weekend escape or to experience what the local area has to offer. Written and researched by a team of experts, each book is independent in its recommendations and suggestions, often offering individual takes on each destination.


Widely recognised for their reliability, Lonely Planet Trips guides each have the same layout, covering iconic trips in the whole region and further chapters by geographical area, including specifically themed routes. An introductory section groups every trip by theme: Routes, Food and Drink, Outdoors, History and Culture, Offbeat, Cities and Day Trips in addition to a further grouping of trips by season and also those recommended by experts. Page references are included in this section to help readers identify their favoured trip quickly.


Each guide opens with an ‘Iconic Trips’ section and is designed to provide visitors with some of the most defining experiences of the local area in addition to covering the wider region as a whole. Individual trips begin with practical information on time, distance, mode of transport, the best time to go and the start and finish points. References to other trips in the area and similar thematic routes are provided to help those wanting to make several trips at once.


Extensive itinerary descriptions feature numbered places of interest which are labelled on an overview map of the route. There is also practical information at the end of each trip with details of things to do, places to eat and accommodation. Regional music playlists also accompany some of the touring routes and local experts also recommend their favourite trips, often with a distinct theme.
