The Hoh River Trail Was Named One of the Best Hikes of 2025
"A rare temperate rainforest on the west side of Olympic National Park known for its hush and lushness — often cited as among the quietest places in the continental U.S. — that receives roughly 140 inches of precipitation annually (mostly in winter). The landscape is defined by a dense green canopy of coniferous and deciduous trees, moss-covered rocks, and floors carpeted with ferns, creating a peaceful, otherworldly hiking experience. Popular trails traverse this landscape, bringing visitors into close contact with its signature mossy, fern-filled environment." - Evie Carrick Evie Carrick Evie Carrick is a writer and editor who’s lived in five countries and visited well over 50.
