You might be thinking the park is all about hiking and wildlife, but there are actually some really incredible things to do in Olympic National Park – whether you’re someone looking for an action-packed adventure or a place to find solace and silence. 

You’ll be surrounded by the call of the rushing rivers, shimmering lakes, cascading waterfalls, rolling surf of the Pacific Ocean, and old-growth forests that whisper their secrets. 

Hike the Hurricane Ridge

Here is where you’ll find glacier-chiseled U-shaped valleys and sub-alpine meadows filled with singing marmots, friendly black-tailed deer, and vibrant wildflowers. 

Visit the Lakes in Olympic National Park

If you want to experience the serenity and calm water activities in the Olympic Park Washington, then escape to its striking alpine and sub-alpine lakes of all shapes, sizes, and colors. 

Explore the Lowland Old Growth Forests

The lowland old-growth forests have Douglas fir and western hemlock forests with trees that exceed 200 years old, and have a multi-layered canopy with abundant downed wood and standing dead trees. 

Visit the Temperate Rainforests

Temperate rainforests grow along the coast, and in ocean-facing valleys so the west side of the park is where you’ll find one of the best places in the world to see a temperate rainforest. 

Check out the Wilderness Coast

From tide pools filled with colorful and intriguing creatures to arches and sea stacks or oodles of driftwood to play with on the beach, you’ll be entertained and in awe on the Olympic Peninsula coastline.
