"Centered on a 14,410-foot active volcano, this park offers towering alpine scenery, ancient forests, and prolific wildflower displays in late summer. Prime wildflower viewing is found along Reflection Lakes and the Grand Park meadow in July and August; Sunrise Road leads to the highest vehicle-accessible viewpoint and the popular 5.5-mile Skyline Trail Loop provides close-up views of the mountain and Nisqually Glacier." - Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel is a writer with more than eight years of experience editing and writing for both brands and online publications—with a particular focus on travel, fashion, and lifestyle.
