Best time to visit Olympic National Park

Mid-June through September offers the driest weather, fully open roads to Hurricane Ridge and the high country, and all park campgrounds open. The summer months of June through September are the busiest time of year at Olympic, so shoulder months of late May and early October bring thinner crowds and cooler rainforest hikes. Winter visits are possible for coastal and rainforest areas, but higher elevation access becomes weather dependent. Weather in Olympic is variable and unpredictable no matter the time of year, so always check the current weather forecast and call the road and weather line before your visit.

Things to do at Olympic National Park

  • Hurricane Ridge Easy
    RV parking available

    Hurricane Ridge is the park's most accessible high-country destination, offering panoramic Olympic Mountain views from a 5,242-foot visitor center. It is the easiest way to reach the subalpine ecosystem, just a 45-minute drive from Port Angeles. Short paved loops and longer alpine trails start at the visitor center parking area. nps.gov/olym/planyourvisit/hurricane-ridge.htm

  • Hoh Rain Forest Easy
    RV parking available

    The Hoh Rain Forest is one of the largest temperate rainforests in the United States, famous for moss-draped Sitka spruce and bigleaf maple groves. The Hall of Mosses and Spruce Nature Trail are short, family-friendly loops from the visitor center, with RV-friendly parking at the trailhead. Arrive early in summer as the lot fills quickly. nps.gov/olym/planyourvisit/visiting-the-hoh.htm

  • Ruby Beach and Kalaloch Coast Easy
    RV parking available

    Ruby Beach is the signature sea-stack beach on Olympic's southern coast, with driftwood, tidepools, and dramatic offshore rocks. The pullout has a paved lot suitable for RVs and a short walking path down to the beach. Pair it with a stop at nearby Kalaloch Campground for an oceanfront overnight. nps.gov/olym/planyourvisit/visiting-kalaloch-and-ruby-beach.htm

  • Lake Crescent Easy
    RV parking available

    Lake Crescent is a deep glacier-carved lake along US 101 with clear blue water and forested shorelines. Visitors can kayak, swim, or walk the paved Marymere Falls trail from the Storm King Ranger Station. The Fairholme Campground on the west end accommodates RVs. nps.gov/olym/planyourvisit/visiting-lake-crescent.htm

  • Sol Duc Falls and Hot Springs Easy
    RV parking available

    Sol Duc is a lush valley with a popular three-tier waterfall and the historic Sol Duc Hot Springs Resort. The Sol Duc Falls Trail is a gentle 1.6-mile round trip through old-growth forest. The Sol Duc Campground accommodates RVs and has a dump station. nps.gov/olym/planyourvisit/visiting-sol-duc-valley.htm

  • Rialto Beach Moderate
    RV parking available

    Rialto Beach is a wild Pacific shoreline near the mouth of the Quillayute River, known for massive driftwood logs and the Hole-in-the-Wall sea arch. A flat 1.5-mile walk along the beach reaches the arch at low tide. The day-use lot accommodates RVs, though it fills on summer weekends. nps.gov/olym/planyourvisit/visiting-mora-and-rialto-beach.htm

  • Lake Quinault and the Quinault Rain Forest Easy
    RV parking available

    Lake Quinault anchors the park's southwest corner with a loop drive through old-growth rainforest and several record-sized trees.

How to get to Olympic National Park

From Seattle, most RV travelers drive roughly 2.5 to 3 hours via the Tacoma Narrows Bridge and US 101 to Port Angeles, the main gateway on the north side. From Portland, Oregon, plan about 4.5 to 5 hours north via I-5 and US 101 to the south entrances at Quinault and Kalaloch. The road to Hurricane Ridge climbs 17 miles into the subalpine ecosystem, reaching 5,242 feet at the Hurricane Ridge Visitor Center, a steep drive with tight curves that larger rigs should approach slowly and in low gear. In winter the road may be closed certain days, and all vehicles are required to carry tire chains in case of icy conditions. The closest airport for fly-and-rent trips is Seattle-Tacoma International (SEA).
