Hi Anita! The Cascadia 16 may be a great option for you. The Cascadia 16 is able to handle running through different terrain and the outsole includes TrailTack rubber for added grip, which may be beneficial when climbing. The Cascadia 16 has drainage holes for water to leave the shoe, but it is not designed for swimming. We recommend checking them out in the store and we have our Run Happy Promise that allows you to try the shoes for 90 days from the date of purchase, if you're not satisfied with them, you're more than welcome to return them for a full refund.
