Olympic National Park Overview

By Travel Expert: Candyce H. Stapen

Three distinct ecosystems—snowcapped mountains, ocean shore, and temperate rainforest—await visitors to the nearly one-million-acre Olympic National Park. Your family can venture into misty forests where Sitka spruce and Douglas fir loom over mossy footpaths, go river rafting, and explore tidepools on Pacific beaches. Indeed, the park contains the largest section of wilderness coast—more than 60 miles—in the contiguous lower 48 states, offering plenty of space to roam.
