Seattle | Olympic & Mount Rainier National Park Guide
⭐️ Day 1: Upon arriving in Seattle, drive directly to Olympic National Park (it’s far from the city). Accommodation: Stay in Sequim (near the zoo) or Port Angeles (park entrance). Recommendation: Juan de Fuca Cottages—beachfront cabins with hot tubs/Jacuzzis. Only 6 minutes to Olympic Game Farm for animal feeding! ⭐️ Day 2: Olympic Park Hurricane Ridge: 🌟 Daily limit of 430 vehicles—arrive early! Hike the 3.4-mile round-trip trail for views of Canada’s Victoria Harbour. Lake Crescent + Devils Punchbowl: Swim, kayak, or watch cliff divers! Waterfalls: Marymere Falls and Sol Duc Falls (we skipped them due to time). Rialto Beach: Watch the sunset 🌅 at this moody "werewolf beach." Forks Town: Visit the filming location of Twilight. Dinner: Try Kokopelli Grill in Port Angeles for fresh seafood . ⭐️ Day 3: Rainforest & Beach Hoh Rain Forest: Wait times can reach 1 hour. Walk the Hall of Mosses Loop—magical at first, but may feel repetitive. Kalaloch Beach: Visit the Tree of Life (search directly for it). Beach 3 has striking black sand—worth exploring if time allows. Drive to Mount Rainier NP for sunset. #OlympicNationalPark #MountRainier #SeattleTravel #HohRainforest#Seattle #Seattle life#travel guide
