Overview

Join a locally inspired half-day itinerary that features top Olympic National Park destinations including the Elwha Valley and Lake Crescent, plus a bonus sightseeing stop along the Strait of Juan De Fuca. Departing from Port Angeles, the tour begins with a short waterfall walk (0.1 mile) at Madison Creek Falls along the Elwha River. Lake Crescent is the centerpiece of the itinerary with a 2-3 mile guided hike to Marymere Falls and surrounding trails immersed in old-growth forests. The afternoon wraps up with a scenic drive around Lake Crescent to reach Tongue Point and amazing views of the Strait of Juan De Fuca from Salt Creek County Park. The guided hikes are optional, allowing guests to do minimal hiking or up to 2-4 miles total.

Traveling from Seattle? Walk onto the 9:35am Seattle-Bainbridge Ferry and catch the 10:20am Strait Shot Bus from the Bainbridge Island Ferry Terminal to join this tour. Email [email protected] to learn more about day-trip options from Seattle.
