Olympic Peninsula Rainforest & Coast Loop
Loop the peninsula from Seattle, visiting Hurricane Ridge, Lake Crescent, wild beaches, and the Hoh Rain Forest
A classic way to experience three landscapes in one park: head up the mountains on the north side, explore beaches and mossy rainforests on the west side, and finish at Lake Quinault on the south end before returning to Seattle. There are no roads cutting through the center of the peninsula, so you must loop around US-101. Perfect for those who want to hike in summer without getting too tired. The Hoh River Bridge is down to a single lane due to repairs, so allow extra waiting time when crossing.
Hurricane Ridge has limited winter opening hours with no indoor facilities or dining. Check road conditions before heading up.
