Quinault Rainforest Nature Trails

Lush mid-temperate rainforest, cascading creeks and some of the biggest primeval Doug Fir trees on the planet are just a few of the highlights on this beautiful hike. The Quinault Valley is arguable the most impressive of the three rainforest valleys on the west end of the Olympic Peninsula. Join us and hear some of the history within the Quinault Valley including the details behind President Franklin Roosevelt’s famous 1937 visit and how it helped shape Olympic National Park as we know it today. The trip will be a moderately paced 3-5 mile trek with a “barely noticed” 350 ft elevation gain.
