Grand Valley Loop Hike

Overview

The Grand Valley is one of the best hikes in the Olympics. You get grand panoramic views of mountains in all directions, alpine lakes and meadows, and some of the most habituated wildlife. That said, don’t expect any solitude. This is a very popular hike. If you're backpacking, you have to reserve specific camp areas on specific days. Since this is a fair distance from Portland, you will need to be organized and prepared. Perhaps you could combine this with a trip that includes visiting Hurricane Hill , taking the ferry to Victoria, walking along the Dungeness Spit and/or the Pacific Ocean beaches.
