Towering snow-capped peaks and more than 70 miles of rugged Pacific Ocean coastline, the natural wonderland of Olympic National Park spans nearly a million acres, encompasses three distinct ecosystems, and offers year-round adventure and exploration for all ages and interests. It鈥檚 such a diverse and unique place that it earned a natural UNESCO World Heritage Site and International Biosphere Reserve designations.
Wander past waterfalls under a canopy of old-growth trees. Cast a line for something wild. Dip your paddle in deep waters or rushing rivers, or soak in some serenity in a hot-springs pool. From pristine beaches to untouched wilderness, you can experience some of the most scenic and popular destinations in the country, or opt for your own unique adventure off the beaten path.
It鈥檚 all here, all year round鈥攆rom hiking, biking, camping, birding, road tripping and more. Welcome to Olympic National Park.
NOTE: As of May 8, access to the Hoh Rain Forest via the Upper Hoh Road has been restored! The road is open, and the Hoh Rain Forest is once again open to visitors.
