Hike, climb, and soar through the peaceful mountainside landscapes of Hawk Peak Provincial Park.
Follow the marked trails or explore the backcountry as you make your way to the summit.
Along the way, meet other hikers, discover hidden treasures, and take in the world around you.

Key Features:
- Explore the island any way you like. Choose your own path to follow and see where it leads you. You never know what you might stumble into!
- Hike at your own pace — there’s no need to rush to the summit! Take your time fishing along the river banks or swimming by the lakeshore.
- Collect hidden treasures to reach new heights. Try taking a dive off the mountain peaks to soar above the forests.
- Chat with the other hikers you meet along your route. You might be able to help each other out!
- Listen to a lush original soundtrack by Mark Sparling that progresses dynamically as you explore the wilderness.

A Short Hike is a 2019 adventure video game by the Canadian indie game designer Adam Robinson-Yu, also known as adamgryu. It is an open-world exploration game in which the player is tasked with reaching the summit of a mountain in the Hawk Peak Provincial Park. To reach the top, the player has to collect Golden Feathers which gives them the ability to run, climb, and double jump. While exploring, the player also encounters various non-player characters (NPCs), some of which offer minigames and tasks to complete.
