Travel Blog: Olympic National Park

The following press release was published by the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service on Dec. 29, 2022. It is reproduced in full below.

Olympic National Park is a truly unique site, known widely for its diversity; here you can experience one of the largest temperate rainforests in the US, witness huge snowy mountains, view scenic rivers, and walk along 70+ miles of coastline without ever leaving the park. The park includes four major ecosystems: subalpine, temperate rain forest, coastal, and lowland forest. If you're looking for vast wilderness, Olympic National Park is the place to go. There is something for everyone here: fishing, hiking, biking, boat tours, paddle boarding, and even spots to dine and shop throughout the park. Lake Crescent, a glacially carved lake, is a great place to visit for some of these activities - here you can rent a rowboat or kayak, or go for a picnic. With its clear waters and beautiful scenery it is definitely a spot you can stay at all day.
