Quinault rain forest loop
The Quinault rain forest loop is about a 31 mile road that loops around Lake Quinault and up along the Quinault River in the Olympic National Park. There are hiking trails and waterfalls that you can see right off the road. The road is paved, but full of pot holes the entire way so drive slow.

Hall of Mosses is only a .8 mile hike, but has to be one of the most beautiful hikes I’ve been on and I’ve been on a lot. The height of the trees absolutely covered in moss feels like a fairytale and a portal to another dimension. If you get the chance, definitely give this trail a try! #washing
