Also known as: Hoh Trail
The Hoh River Trail travels 17.4 miles through the heart of the Hoh Rain Forest — one of the largest temperate rainforests in the US — before climbing to Glacier Meadows at the base of Mount Olympus. The old-growth Sitka spruce and bigleaf maple draped in moss create an otherworldly atmosphere unlike anywhere else in the Cascades.
The Hoh Rain Forest receives up to 140 inches of precipitation annually, making it one of the wettest places in the contiguous United States. The trail is the primary access route to Mount Olympus and was historically used by the Hoh Tribe for travel across the Olympic Peninsula.
