Description
Visit one of the largest temperate rain forests in the USA and explore the Olympic Wilderness Coast on a 9-hour guided hiking tour. The tour begins with a scenic 2-hour van tour deep into the interior of the Hoh Rain Forest. Upon arrival, your naturalist hiking guide will lead a 2-mile hike through two scenic nature loops within the Hoh Rain Forest, identifying mosses, lichens, trees, while discussing the natural history of this ancient old-growth forest. We generally spend about two hours exploring the Hoh Rain Forest.
On our drive to Rialto Beach, we will make a 15-20 minute scheduled stop in the small town of Forks, WA at a local grocery store. Guests can purchase grab & go deli items, snacks, coffee, or souvenirs during this stop. Upon arrival at Rialto Beach, we generally allocate time for a picnic lunch before trekking along the wilderness coastline. Rialto Beach highlights include a stunning coastline forest, towering sea stacks, and massive driftwood logs scattered along the beach. After an afternoon of Rialto Beach explorations, relax in the spacious van for a comfortable 1-hour-and-30-minute drive back to Port Angeles.
