Renowned for the diversity of its ecosystems, the Olympic National Park is a UNESCO* World Heritage Site and International Biosphere Reserve. Roads enter the park’s interior from its edges like spokes on a wheel, leaving 95% of the park designated as Olympic Wilderness. There are over 600 miles of trails for hiking, climbing, backpacking and exploring.

Top Picks Beach Hikes: Olympic’s wild beaches look just like they did when wooden ships searched for the elusive Northwest Passage. Explore them on a half-day hike to a five-day trek. Highlights: the Ozette Wilderness Loop, Third Beach near La Push, Beach 4 near Kalaloch, and Ruby Beach with its glittering sand. Sol Duc Hot Springs: Sol Duc Hot Springs Resort, featuring three hot pools, a freshwater swimming pool, food service and rental cabins, is a great place to soak, especially after a hike to Sol Duc Falls or in the back country to Seven Lakes Basin and the High Divide. Rain Forests: Visit temperate rain forests – among the few on the planet – in the Hoh, Queets, Quinault and Bogachiel valleys. They are emerald wonderlands of moss-draped trees – including some recordholding giants – highlighted by golden maple trees in the fall. Alpine Regions: Start at Hurricane Ridge for several ridge-top strolls. Then try bolder backcountry hikes to the Hoh, Quinault and Elwha valleys. Lena Lake Trail is also very popular. South Hood Canal: The Staircase entrance offers several short day hikes that explore the area; they range from flat strolls to more challenging trails, some gaining over 3,000 feet in elevation. Longer hikes, like the North Fork Skokomish River trail, take a couple of days.

Olympic National Park Visitor Center & Wilderness Information Center (3002 Mount Angeles Road) in Port Angeles is the park’s primary visitor center. It features educational park exhibits, map and book sales, hands-on Discovery Room for younger visitors and a 25-minute award-winning orientation film shown on request. Dedicated staff are available to help you plan your visit, whether for one day, one week or longer. Wilderness camping, hiking and permit information plus bear canisters are available. Many ranger stations do not have regular winter hours. Check the park newspaper, Olympic Bugler, or ONP website for current activities and seasonal details. If you are traveling with a pet, please be sure to observe park policies. Find dog-friendly destinations: OlympicPeninsula.org/Dog-Friendly

Olympic National Forest (ONF) covers over 633,000 acres, nearly encircling the entire Olympic National Park. It offers a wide range of recreation, including hiking, camping, picnicking and boating, in a diverse landscape ranging from verdant rain forests to deep canyons and high mountain ridges. There are more than 250 miles of trails, many of which wander through ancient old-growth forests. Dogs are welcome on all ONF lands. ONF also has a bounty of edible delicacies. Pick wild berries in the late summer months and gather mushrooms in the fall. Seal Rock Campground on the Hood Canal allows harvesting of oysters for personal consumption. Be aware of the daily limit and other state guidelines. For more information, please visit: www.FS.USDA.gov/Olympic Mt. Walker Viewpoint’s panoramic views of Puget Sound can be found 4.1 miles off Highway 101, south of Quilcene. The parking lot is accessible to vehicles spring through fall. This road is steep and not recommended for vehicles pulling trailers. From the parking lot, follow a short loop trail to spectacular views. ONF operates 17 campgrounds on a first-come, first-served basis with varying fees. The five designated Wilderness areas do not require wilderness permits, but a Northwest Forest Pass is required for vehicles parked at many ONF trailheads. Three historic cabins are available for overnight lodging – the Hamma Hamma, Interrorem and Louella. These can be reserved through the National Recreation Reservation system at Recreation.gov.

From Coast to Forest

Enjoy scenic ocean shores with easy beach access from both camp sites and rental accommodations nearby in the Kalaloch (pronounced clay-lock) area. Beach Trail 4 leads to a pebble beach with teeming tidal pools and dramatic surf (beware of the strong undertow). This beach is also a popular place to net smelt, small fish that come to spawn in the surf during warm, calm weather. North of Kalaloch is picturesque Ruby Beach, named for its sometimes garnet-colored sand. Inland, explore the “Valley of the Rain Forest Giants” where record-setting evergreen trees thrive. Hike miles of groomed trails, access wild backcountry, fish for world-class salmon and steelhead, bird-watch and hunt for mushrooms under this enchanting canopy of rain forest.

Averaging 12 feet of rain per year, the Quinault Valley has the ideal climate to grow big conifer trees. It is home to six recordsetting giants—the largest western red cedar (which unfortunately fell in July 2016, but can still be viewed), Sitka spruce, Douglas fir, yellow cedar, mountain hemlock and western hemlock trees—as recognized by the National Forestry Association. Only redwoods and sequoias are larger. Some of these giant trees can be seen on a modest to moderate hikes. For more information, contact the Quinault Forest Ranger Station: 360-288-0203.

The Quinault Rain Forest Loop Drive A 31-mile loop road around Lake Quinault parallels the Quinault River and ventures into Olympic National Park, providing magnificent views into the heart of the Olympic Mountains. There are many easy-access opportunities to take photographs and to view waterfalls and wildlife and explore on foot. View several of the waterfalls listed on the Olympic Peninsula Waterfall Trail along the drive. All are easily accessible from the road or by a modest walk. Enjoy spectacular views of giant trees and the Quinault River along the Loop Drive. Watch for Roosevelt elk, blacktail deer, bald eagle, bobcat, cougar and black bear. Allow two hours’ minimum to complete the trip by car.

Quinault Indian Reservation

The Quinault Indian Nation includes the Quinault and Queets tribes and descendants of five other coastal tribes: Quileute, Hoh, Chehalis, Chinook and Cowlitz. They walk the same beaches, paddle the same waters and hunt the same lands as their ancestors did centuries ago. The Quinault Indians traditionally used Lake Quinault as summering grounds. Visit the Quinault Cultural Center in Taholah to see natural and cultural artifacts. Take a fishing trip or beach tour with a Quinault guide to learn about native birds and wildlife.

Fishing Adventures

The Bogachiel, Hoh, Sol Duc and Calawah Rivers offer worldclass fishing when salmon and steelhead are running. For salmon and other saltwater fish, charter a fishing boat from La Push. Local guides, restaurants and inns cater to fishing enthusiasts, providing pre-dawn breakfasts and packing lunches to go.

Hoh Rain Forest

The dense rain forest valley of the glacier-fed Hoh River is a mustsee. These forests thrive sustained by 12 to 16 feet of rainfall a year, not including the 30 inches of tree drip from fog condensing in the canopy. Browsing herds of Roosevelt elk feed on the thick undergrowth and keep it from obscuring the trail view. The Hoh Visitor Center is the starting point for several walks under two miles, as well as longer and more challenging hikes to the glaciers and alpine meadows of Olympic National Park’s interior. The word “Hoh” is a Native American term meaning “fast moving water” and describes the beautiful Hoh River perfectly. See eagles, elk, otters and other wildlife from the banks or take a trip down the river via kayak, raft or guided drift boat.

One of the nation’s National Scenic Byways, State Highway 112 follows the scenic shoreline of the Strait of Juan de Fuca, which connects Puget Sound to the Pacific Ocean and separates the Olympic Peninsula from Vancouver Island, Canada. This dramatic coastline extends farther into the North Pacific than any other mainland point in the lower 48 states. Its winding route is beautiful year round, changing with the seasons. View rugged cliffs and thick forests, watch for oft-seen eagles, otters and gray whales. Visit the Joyce General Store and Depot Museum, Salt Creek Recreation Area with beach access and tide pools and fishing villages of Clallam Bay, Sekiu and Neah Bay, on the Makah Indian Reservation. Take a side trip to scenic Lake Ozette.

Joyce

This small town evolved from Port Crescent, a boom town that vied with Port Angeles in the late 1800s. An 1890 election named Port Angeles the county seat, thereby diminishing Port Crescent’s importance. Later the community moved to its present location, renamed as Joyce. The Joyce Depot Museum has displays from old Port Crescent days. The Joyce General Store celebrated its 100th birthday in 2011. Nearby Salt Creek Recreation Area and Freshwater Bay are popular camping and recreation sites.

Clallam Bay/Sekiu

Gray and humpback whales, orcas and sea otters are frequent visitors to our shores. Sekiu is a world-famous recreational fishing destination—record-breaking salmon and halibut have been caught offshore. The community offers all the services for sport fishing, including charter trips and boat rentals.

Coastal Recreation

Sekiu and Clallam Bay are near the turn-off road to Lake Ozette, located along a Pacific coast sliver of the Olympic National Park. Here hiking trails lead to miles of unspoiled ocean beaches. A nine-mile triangle hike from Ozette to Cape Alava to Sand Point passes ancient petroglyphs. To the north, Shi Shi Beach was named one of the “Top 10 Campgrounds for Experts” by Sunset Magazine in 2014 – because you must hike in. The trek is well worth it to experience one of the most spectacular stretches on the Olympic coastline.

Neah Bay & Cape Flattery

Neah Bay and the Makah Indian Reservation are at the tip of the Olympic Peninsula where Highway 112 ends and the Cape Flattery Tribal Scenic Byway begins. Visit the Makah Cultural Center to learn about the “Ozette Dig” and see archeological artifacts unearthed from a 16th century Makah village. Continue west to Cape Flattery – the most northwestern point in the contiguous U.S. and part of the Makah Indian Reservation. Follow the cedar-plank boardwalk trail to view the Pacific Ocean and Strait of Juan de Fuca. On clear days, spot Tatoosh Island, a sacred

Port Angeles, the largest city on the Olympic Peninsula, has made its mark with colorful history as an active deep water seaport since the mid-1850s. Its location provides the best transit across the Strait of Juan de Fuca to Victoria, Canada, via the Blackball Ferry Line. The MV Coho Ferry crosses in 90 minutes and operates daily except during annual dry dock service late January to early February. The snowcapped Olympic Mountains form a dramatic backdrop south of Port Angeles. A short 18-mile drive from the city leads to Hurricane Ridge, one of the most visited areas in Olympic National Park.

Downtown Happenings Port Angeles’ recently renovated downtown is a great place to view harbor activities. The City Pier offers magnificent views of ships at anchor and the City of Victoria, Canada, 18 miles across the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Visit the pier’s Feiro Marine Life Center with exhibits on protecting marine resources. Adjacent is the Olympic Coast Discovery Center in The Landing Mall. Learn about the ocean and underwater landscape, maritime history, marine wildlife, habitats and traditional cultures. Take a guided tour of historical Port Angeles to see sections of its famed underground or view colorful murals depicting local lore. Enjoy Art on the Town, a display of over 56 outdoor sculptures. It includes the Avenue of the People, a permanent outdoor art display of ordinary people doing things about town. Take a guided Art Walk through downtown or browse the cafés, restaurants, galleries, boutiques, gift shops, independent bookstores and antique shops on your own.

Visit during one of Sequim’s many fun events and get to know some of the people who make this a special community.

Outdoor Fun in the Sun

Due to the “rain shadow” caused by the Olympic Mountains, Sequim is one of the driest places in Western Washington. It is even home to a tiny prickly pear cactus. Averaging just 16 inches of annual rainfall, Sequim is the perfect destination for outdoor adventure. Come to hike, bike, kayak, golf and bird-watch. Bring binoculars to better enjoy the area’s wonderful vistas.

Rich in Agricultural Heritage

Sequim is known for its organic fruits and vegetables and the fragrant herb lavender. In the summer, pause at roadside stands and U-pick farms for raspberries, blackberries, blueberries and strawberries. Shop the Sequim Farmers’ Market for the freshest local produce. Visit local lavender farms to pick your own sweet bouquets and purchase hand-crafted lavender products. Many farms are open for U-pick from July through September. Also enjoy local products from the Dungeness Valley Creamery and savor the native Dungeness crab.

John Wayne Marina

Featured in SEA Magazine as “Best of the West” for small marinas, this marina was constructed in 1985 on 22 acres donated by the John Wayne family. Actor John Wayne frequented Sequim 14

John Wayne Marina

Bay waters aboard the family yacht, Wild Goose, and envisioned a marina in the scenic bay. Today the marina features permanent and guest moorage, excellent marine services, restaurant, showers, laundry and banquet facilities, and provides boat launch ramps, fuel facilities, public beach access and picnic areas.

Dungeness Spit & Lighthouse

At 5.5 miles in length, the Dungeness Spit is the longest naturally occurring sand spit in North America. It encompasses the Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge, a sanctuary for shorebirds, marine life and mammals ranging from seals to Columbian black-tailed deer. Trails and picnic areas offer sweeping views of the beaches, Dungeness Harbor and the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Hike or paddle to the end of the spit to see the New Dungeness Lighthouse, built in 1857 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It has been manned by The New Dungeness Light Station Association since 1994 and offers the opportunity to be a “Lighthouse Keeper” for a week. Go at low tide if hiking and in calm seas if boating or kayaking. Call ahead for reservations as water access is limited to minimize disturbance to marine mammals and birds.

Celebrate the Elwha

Our Working Forests 21st century sustainable forestry

Salmon returning to the Elwha

The Working Forest

The removal of 100-year-old Elwha and Glines Canyon dams on the Elwha River began in mid-September 2011, as the largest dam removal and restoration project in U.S. history. Today, with both dams gone, the Elwha River flows freely through the valley from its headwaters in the Olympic Mountains to the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Lake Mills and Lake Aldwell reservoirs drained, and for the first time in a century, salmon and other migratory fish returned within months to 70 miles of spawning habitat. The fish bring with them the promise of a restored ecosystem and renewed cultural tradition for the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe. There are two locations to view the old dam sites. The Glines Canyon Overlook at former Lake Mills has remnants of the old dam with interpretive panels along the viewing walkway and trails along the former shores and lakebed. Turn south onto Olympic Hot Springs Rd. just east of the Elwha River Bridge to access the Glines Canyon Overlook. The previous site of the Elwha Dam at the former Lake Aldwell can be found off Hwy 112 between Milepost 6061 and Lower Dam Rd., Elwha Interpretive Center which is now home to the newly-erected Elwha Interpretive Center. Call or visit the website for more information: 360-565-3130 NPS.gov/olym/planyourvisit/current-conditions.htm

The Olympic Peninsula is home to a long tradition of forestry that has shaped the culture as well as the landscape for more than a century. In the late 19th century, forests contributed significantly to the building of America’s cities and transportation systems. Early loggers Olympic forests provided a growing nation with the necessary wood products to build a sustainable quality of life for everyone. The practice of forestry is now evolving with the public’s growing appreciation of wild spaces and renewal of natural resources. This is the legacy and the benefit of the working forest. The Olympic Peninsula’s forestry legacy continues today in second- and third-growth forests, providing products for the nation and jobs for the people of the Olympic Peninsula. The Olympic Peninsula is a wonderful place to learn about the working forest. Visit Merrill & Ring’s 125-year-old tree farm at Pysht for insight on forestry’s evolving management of sustainable natural resources. To learn more, please visit Forestry.org/Washington/forest.

Highway 101 offers a scenic driving loop around the Olympic Peninsula. Its 350 miles truly show off the majestic Olympic Mountains, spectacular ocean beaches and lush temperate rain forests. Overnight stays are strongly encouraged. Along the way, explore coastal lighthouses, old military forts and birding locations. Pause in a Victorian seaport, enjoy wine, beer or cider tastings, play on a championship golf course and get off the beaten path to discover what the locals treasure. For example, follow the Olympic Peninsula Waterfall Trail or the Olympic Culinary Loop around the peninsula. Find the eight lighthouses along the loop, reaching from the Point Wilson Lighthouse in Port Townsend to the lighthouse in Gray’s Harbor. Drive the Quinault Rain Forest Loop around Lake Quinault to view gigantic trees and impressive waterfalls. With all there is to explore on the Olympic Peninsula Loop, plan several days to best experience its rich diversity.

Wildlife Viewing

Water Adventures

The Olympic Peninsula is one of the best places to view diverse wildlife at close proximity. The Olympic National Park (ONP) Visitor Center has information on indigenous species and safety information about animals better not seen up close, such as black bear, mountain goats, bobcats and cougar. Roosevelt elk: in the lower ONP areas and often seen around the peninsula. Mountain goats and marmots: in ONP at higher altitudes. Fishers: re-introduced into the ONP in 2008 but elusive. Eagles, falcons and hawks: raptors populate many areas of the peninsula. Salmon: fall is spawning season for several salmon species in rivers and streams. Black-tailed deer: frequently spotted in the hills and lowlands.

The Olympic Peninsula has many lakes, rivers and shorelines that offer fresh and saltwater opportunities for water adventures. Surfing: La Push’s First Beach and Neah Bay’s Hobuck Beach. Stand Up Paddling (SUP): Lake Crescent and the sandy beaches of Crescent Bay and Salt Creek Recreation Area. Kayaking: Hood Canal’s shores and the Strait of Juan de Fuca’s coast from Port Townsend to Neah Bay. Rafting and kayaking: Hoh, Quillayute, Sol Duc and Elwha rivers. Small boats: Sequim Bay, Port Angeles Harbor and Clallam Bay, plus area lakes. Water recreation + birds and sea life: Freshwater Bay, west of Port Angeles, and protected Dungeness Bay, north of Sequim. Diving: Surrounded on three sides by water, the Olympic Peninsula has some of the best diving on the West Coast. There are many locations around the coast of the Peninsula that offer diving and marine services. Freshwater diving: Lake Crescent and Lake Ozette. Saltwater diving: Hood Canal is world-renowned for its waters’ clarity in the off-season. Advanced diving: open coastal waters of the National Marine Sanctuary.

Sailing/Marinas

The Strait of Juan de Fuca offers a challenging and exhilarating sailing experience. Enjoy calmer sailing and boating in Hood Canal, a glacial fjord with many secluded coves, beaches and local marinas at Quilcene Boat Haven and Pleasant Harbor. Other marinas offer public moorage in Port Townsend, Port Hadlock and Port Ludlow. Along the strait, Port Angeles Harbor and Sequim Bay have protected moorage for small craft. Ocean fishing marinas include world-renowned Sekiu, Clallam Bay and Neah Bay. On the Pacific Ocean coast, La Push features saltwater charter fishing.

The 3,189 square nautical miles of protected marine waters off the rugged Olympic Peninsula coastline is home to an abundance of marine mammals, fish and seabirds. It extends 25 to 40 miles seaward, covering much of the continental shelf and several major submarine canyons. Along its shores are thriving intertidal communities, teeming with fish, kelp and other sea life. Along the sea bed, scattered communities of deep sea coral and sponges form habitats for fish and other important marine wildlife. Visit the Olympic Coast Discovery Center in Port Angeles to learn about these marine creatures and habitats. FREE admission. Open daily 10am – 5pm from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Open weekends only 10am – 5pm September through mid-October. To schedule a tour in the off-season, phone 360-457-6622.

The Olympic Peninsula has some of the best river fishing in the world. The Bogachiel, Hoh and Sol Duc Rivers offer superb freshwater fishing, plus the many lakes offer excellent fishing, too. Sekiu, Clallam Bay, Neah Bay and La Push have been oceanfishing destinations for decades. Many charters sail out of these harbors. Always check regulations, which can vary. The Olympic Peninsula is home of the prized Dungeness crab, celebrated annually during the Dungeness Crab & Seafood Festival in Port Angeles. Hood Canal, especially near Quilcene and Brinnon, is famous for its shellfish. Wild berries and mushrooms can be found in abundance.

Enthusiasts come to the Olympic Peninsula from around the world to watch for more than 300 species of birds, including bald eagles, marbled murrelets, brants, falcons, dippers and widgeons. Popular coastal viewing areas include Cape American Goldfinch Flattery, Neah Bay, along Hwy 112, Port Angeles’ waterfront and Ediz Hook, Dungeness Spit and Marrowstone Island east of Port Townsend. Protection Island at the head of Discovery Bay provides nesting habitat to 70% of Puget Sound’s seabird population. Bald eagles, harbor seals and deer from the mainland also feed and breed here. Though no access to the island is permitted, several companies offer boat tours to view this 364-acre site from the water. Inland, go bird-watching by the upper waters of Dungeness and Gray Wolf Rivers in Olympic National Forest and at Hurri-

Peninsula. Whether you’re looking for an alpine forest, a mossy valley or peaceful rocky beach you’ll find a rewarding location to experience. Accommodations vary widely from full amenities to remotely rustic and between federal, state, county, city and private sites. Most are open year round. Keep in mind that summer months are busiest and spot fill up fast on weekends. It is best to reserve a spot in advance, but note that all sites within Olympic National Park except those at Olympic National Park & Forest lodges (listed on page 4) are on a first-come firstserved basis. # of Sites
