Sol Duc Falls — Saturday, Jul. 27, 2024

Olympic Peninsula > Northern Coast
From the bridge

The trailhead was packed arriving at 2:00 pm. This trail is in Olympic National Park so you will need a park pass. A short walk down a very beautiful but busy trail and you will find a Shelter then an amazing set of Falls cascading into a unique canyon type flume. Nothing typical about this one. the word spectacular comes to me first, then awesome and wondering how this was formed. So glad to have finally come to see it. The shelter is a log cabin with no doors. Not sure what the story is on it. This is definitely worth coming to see if visiting the peninsula.  Took a soak in the hot springs. they were so relaxing after hiking Storm King earlier. The Sol Duc Falls and hot springs are just West of Lake Crescent as your heading up the hill on your left about a mile or so. Lots more hikes up there too! Day hikes and overnight hikes. Already planning my next visit.
