Hiking Path vs Hillside Green paint color comparison

Hiking Path vs Hillside Green

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Hiking Path belongs to the beige-greige family and Hillside Green to the beige-green family. Hillside Green (LRV 34) reflects noticeably more light than Hiking Path (LRV 30), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean yellow, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 5.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
