Hike across a broad, high summit at the northeastern edge of the Olympics and savor dazzling wildflowers and sweeping views that include snowy Mount Baker, the lofty, jagged eastern Olympic Mountain front, Puget Sound, and the Seattle skyline shimmering before Mount Rainier.

A classic hike in the Olympic rain shadow, Marmot Pass is often kissed with sunbeams while nearby ridges swirl with clouds. And while a small population of marmots wander this high country—hikers are abundant. Plan your hike for mid-week and be a good steward of this beautiful but fragile destination.

The trail starts off easy on an old road, crossing a flowing creek. Then it gets steep quickly with sharp turns, climbing nonstop through switchbacks. Pass by salal and young trees, with some big ancient firs still standing from past fires.

The Bayshore Preserve is on a small land in Oakland Bay. It used to be a golf course but has been restored to its natural state by the Capitol Land Trust, Squaxin Island Tribe, and other partners. The preserve is crucial for wildlife and has cultural significance as it used to be a Squaxin Island Tribe village with a large longhouse.

Known for its expansive beach on Hood Canal, which boasts some of Washington's warmest salt water. Visitors mainly head to the beach or campground, so the park's trails are often peaceful. Find the trail start near a group of rhododendron bushes. The path runs alongside Twanoh Creek, leading to a delta on the beach. It eventually reaches a crossroads.

Explore Theler Wetlands at Hood Canal's edge, where the Union River meets the fjord, providing a diverse wildlife habitat. The preserve, alongside a nearby Washington DFW area, safeguards hundreds of acres supporting various animals. Walk on bridges and boardwalks to see many birds and mammals, such as eagles, ospreys, herons, swallows, deer, coyotes, and otters, along the three-mile trail.
