Cape Flattery Trail

This trail overlooks the northwestern-most point in the contiguous United States.

Waves crashing, wide ocean view ahead. A short trail descends to a viewpoint: boardwalk in places, very muddy in others on a slightly wet February day.

Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge

The Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge is home to over 250 species of endangered birds, fish and mammals.

Reviewed By TravelingMerm - Monrovia, United States

This is a seriously cool hike and natural wonder to visit if you’re in the area! It contains the largest natural “spit” in the US (Dungeness Spit) at just over 5 miles long! You can walk the entire length of the spit all the way to the lighthouse which is just over 10 miles round trip. For safety, it’s recommended to go during low tide bc at high tide you’ll have to climb over tons of logs which is hazardous and exhausting. Normally the lighthouse is open for tours but it’s closed for now due to Covid. There’s plenty of paved parking and also some decent bathrooms at the trailhead. Normally there’s a $3 entrance fee per group/family, but the day I visited it was free! Once you enter the trail, you walk through the forest for about 15 minutes then the bay view opens up before you! There is a viewing deck to your right before you head down to the shoreline of the spit. The day I visited, it was so clear you could see Mt Rainier looming over the lighthouse in the distance! So cool! Normally you have a choice of path between a slightly (very slightly) shorter, more paved walk or the “primitive trail”, but due to Covid safety measures, it’s a one way walk now so you head out to the refuge on the primitive trail and come back on the other trail. Along the walk, there are some informational signs and lots of gorgeous trees and birds. It’s a lovely, gentle hike for the most part but it does have a small incline at the end down towards the bay. Once you get down on the beach, you can see the bay and Canada our in front of you and then Sequim behind you! It’s a great outing! Highly recommend!

Marymere Falls

A trail in the Olympic National Forest.

Reviewed By LiveLoveTravelNow

A short hike through the woods and across a creek from the Storm King Ranger Station brings you to these wonderful falls. An early arrival ensures you small crowds and a time to view the falls without feeling rushed. The trail is mostly flat except for the final bit where stairs rise to the falls view platform. Photos are best taken from the viewing platform.

Salt Creek Recreation Area

This popular coastal area was converted from an old military fort after World War II.

Reviewed By RalphieBoy2020

This is a really nice campground for both RV's and tent campers. The RV slots are large and most have a water view. The tent campground seemed to have some really nice secluded spots. Camp host was very friendly and the dump station and overall park was very clean and well taken care of.

Purple Haze Lavender Farm

Purple Haze Lavender is a Certified Organic Farm located in Sequim, Washington on the beautiful Olympic Peninsula. We welcome you to wander the lavender fields, u-pick fresh lavender, try our lavender ice cream and lemonade, and shop in our onsite gift shop filled with a complete line of culinary and body care items made from the lavender on our farm. There are also chickens and peacocks for the little ones to enjoy and many, many great photographic opportunities. Bring your picnic lunch and spend the afternoon!

Reviewed By Cielito07 - Fort Lauderdale, United States

The farm is a quaint, and a beautiful spot. Although the lavender wasn't blooming, there were flowers around the property and a garden in the back. We saw a few animals while roaming around. The bees were very busy pollinating the flowers. If you are interested in buying any of the lavender products from the farm, the shop is only a few miles from the farm in town. I am jealous of the rest of you who might get to see the lavender in full bloom. Enjoy! The people I spoke to on the phone were lovely!

Our whole family, husband, daughter and three grandchildren, walked on towing our small suitcases for a two night stay in Victoria. The Ferry was comfortable and loading and unloading was fast and efficient. We disembarked a block from our hotel.

Olympic National Park Visitor Center

Reviewed By Chester4709 - Kirkland, United States

The cost of entry into the park is $30, for a seven day pass - and it’s well worth it. At the visitors center there are two smaller trails (.8 Hall of Moses and another 1.5 mile hike) and a long 3 day hike. The beauty of the drive in is astonishing. At Sol Duc there’s a easy hike up to a beautiful waterfall. Cabin Renters ONLY can use the hot springs due to COVID-19, and Sol Duc is shutting down 1 month earlier than usual (Sept. 29th). A word of advice - if booking a cabin at Sol Duc (inexpensive and very nice) BOOK WAY IN ADVANCE (at least a few months in advance) as they are VERY POPULAR

Madison Creek Falls

Reviewed By 793LindaC - Moorpark, United States

This is a beautiful area just a short drive from the highway to the parking area, and then a short paved and easy walk to the 100' falls. Along the way is a forest with some wonderful old cedar trees (some are up to 30 feet around.) The rushing Elwha River meanders to the sea. All combine to make some nice vacation photos. Good signage and a ranger on hand + restrooms.

Olympic Game Farm

Reviewed By timbo - Sooke, Canada

Had a great time at the OGF. They sell brown whole wheat to feed the animals. The deer, Yale’s, elk, bison, llamas, peacocks and other come right up the car to get the bread. Often stick their heads right in the car. The animals are roaming free in large fenced areas and you drive your vehicle through the enclosures. Lots of fun. They have additional animals in smaller enclosures that you do not drive thru. This includes a large number of bears, some lions, tigers, wolves etc. Have a gift shop on site as well as a snack shack open during the summer. Great for folks of all ages. There is a chance of damage to your vehicle as some of these animals are quite large. Good chance you could get drilled on. Takes about 30 minutes to drive thru the farm.
