Olympic National Park
Here, you can stand on a glacially carved mountaintop, splash your toes in the Pacific Ocean, and wander under some of the largest trees on the planet - all in the same day. And the park’s living things are just as exciting as the terrain. Sitka spruce, hemlock and western red cedar trees stretch hundreds of feet high, while huge ferns, mosses and lichens transform the understory into an emerald paradise. Animals as varied as black bears, sea otters, marmots, bald eagles, harbour seals, grey whales and salamanders make their homes here. And hundreds of miles of hiking trails criss-cross the park, letting visitors experience this one-of-a-kind place up close.

People come to Olympic from all over the world to walk in alpine meadows, climb glaciers, watch the sun set over the Pacific Ocean, paddle crystal-clear lakes, see burbling waterfalls, peer into tidepools, and stroll under the canopy of giant trees. It’s an unforgettable destination, whether you have a day or a lifetime to explore it.

The main route of the tour is Highway 101, which acts like a ring-road of the northern and western part of the park. There are several roads that side trip deeper into the park and you absolutely should take those spur roads. Hurricane Ridge takes you into the alpine; Hoh takes you into the rainforest; and Sol Duc takes you to hot springs. A circuit of Lake Quinault is highly recommended too. One of the most unique aspects to Olympic is that it also protects sometimes wild Pacific Beaches. Many are accessed directly from Highway 101, while Rialto Beach, Second Beach and Third Beach require a small detour.
