Hall of Mosses & the Hoh River Trail

The Hall of Mosses is a short hike on the Northwestern end of the Olympics, through some of the best old growth forests in the world. This hike is very popular due to it’s easy access and wide trails. The Hoh River Trail shares a trailhead with the Hall of Mosses, and it too traverses miles upon mile of old growth forest. However that is where the similarities end. This trail follows the Hoh river up through the mountains for over 18 miles. Wildlife abounds in the paradise that awaits inside the park.

Marymere Falls & Lake Crescent

Found just outside Snug Harbor, these easy-to-navigate-to spots are must sees when visiting the Olympic Peninsula. Head west from Port Angeles to hike through dense forest to an inspiring waterfall, take in some time on the lake, or camp beneath the stars.

Rialto Beach

Detached from the majority of Olympic National Park, the coastal part of the park spans 73 miles along the Pacific Ocean. And just across the Quillayute River from the world-famous La Push Beach is Rialto Beach. Teeming with life and activity, this beach offers close up views of sea stacks, caves and other interesting geological formations.
