Lake of the Angels

Overview

Tucked high in the mountains of the Olympic Peninsula, in the appropriately named Valley of Heaven, is a breathtaking lake — the Lake of the Angels. The heavenly goal is accessed by a trail built for more mortal interests. Keep in mind, though, if you tackle this trail, it's devilishly difficult. In some places, it requires a vertical climb where falling is not an option. Be prepared, both physically and mentally, for this challenging hike.
