OK, fine. Delaware is not the kind of state you visit if you want to scale mountains or experience dizzying heights. But even though you won’t find those kind of hikes in the state, you can find hikes that are more difficult as well as hikes that will make your stomach drop for different reasons — like how pretty they are. Consider the Northern Delaware Greenway.

Delaware may be a pretty flat state, but that doesn't mean you can't find hikes with amazing views.

Consider the Northern Delaware Greenway. It may not be steep with any high-up views, but it still provides some gorgeous sights that will make your stomach swoop.
At 10.4 miles long, the Northern Delaware Greenway connects multiple state parks and sites into one fun, challenging hike.

This out-and-back trail is a long one, with 889 feet of elevation change, so make sure you wear comfortable shoes and pack water!
The trek brings you to some very cool parts in Delaware.

You go past Bellevue State Park, Wilmington State Park, Brandywine Creek State Park, Brandywine Zoo, and Rockford Park, plus Brandywine River, Alapocas Run State Park, and more.
