Bordered on the west by the Pacific Ocean, on the east by the Hood Canal and on the north by the Strait of Juan de Fuca, the Olympic Peninsula is anchored by the majestic Olympic Mountains. No other place in America can match its diversity in terrain and weather in such a compact geographic area. We invite you to visit and explore our lakes, waterfalls, rivers, mountains, beaches and rain forest!

While our main attraction is Olympic National Park, there is a wealth of outdoor activities, cultural experiences and local events in each community around the Peninsula to keep you coming back for more! Plus, you’ll probably meet some friendly locals enjoying the same “things to do” you’ll want to experience. 

For more information about all the things to see and do on the Olympic Peninsula, you can visit the Olympic Peninsula Visitor’s Site or simply download the 2019-20 OLYMPIC PENINSULA TRAVEL PLANNER.

Pathway to the Pacific!

The route of the Olympic Discovery Trail (ODT) traverses almost 130 miles of lowlands, bordered on the south by the Olympic Mountain Range and on the north by the Strait of Juan de Fuca. It starts in the Victorian seaport of Port Townsend to the east and ends on the shores of the Pacific Ocean to the west. The trail is a wide, paved pathway designed to multi-user standards for bicyclists, hikers, and disabled users, with a 4′ wide shoulder for equestrians where appropriate. Enjoy!
