This is definitely the most popular part of Olympic National Park. The only rain forest in the continental US and it is definitely worth the hype! Note: As of December 2024, this section of the park is unfortunately closed indefinitely due to a road washout. If you're interested in visiting this part of the park, we highly recommend you check with a Park Ranger at the Port Angeles Visitors Center before making the trek.
Take a scenic drive to Lake Crescent and stop at Fairholme General Store to rent a kayak on Lake Crescent.
