  • Olympic National Park, WA

    Olympic National Park, WA
    This UNESCO World Heritage Site in the northwesternmost corner of the United States is best known for being part of the largest temperate rainforest on the planet. It is also home to gorgeous coastline and a portion of the Olympic Mountains.

    Hurricane Ridge

    Located within Washington's Olympic National Park, this mountainous region is a popular destination for hiking, skiing and snowboarding. In the summer, several picnic areas open up, making this a great spot for a day-trip from nearby Seattle.

    During the period from 3/27/2022 to 5/25/2023, Hurricane Ridge Road will be closed for construction, and the itinerary will be adjusted to take pictures on the halfway of Hurricane Ridge, and stay in the tropical rainforest for an extra 30 minutes. Shifts will return to normal after 10/26/2022.

    Duration: Approx. 1 Hour 15 Minutes

    Lake Crescent

    This deep lake in the heart of Olympic National Park holds water that is a brilliant hue of bright blue. It was formed during the last Ice Age by thousands of years of glacial activity.

    Duration: Approx. 45 Minutes

    Temperate rain forest

    Because of development, very few temperate rainforests outside of Olympic National Park exist along this stretch today. In Olympic, temperatures rarely drop below freezing or go above 80F, enabling an incredibly unique ecosystem to grow. Mosses, ferns, Douglas fir, red alders, Western hemlocks and Sitka spruce thrive in temperate rainforests, as do epiphytes, which are plants growing on other plants. Cat-tail moss and licorice ferns are two types of epiphytes you will find in Olympic.
  • Poulsbo, WA

    Poulsbo is a town across the Puget Sound from Seattle, was settled by Norwegian immigrants more than 100 years ago. Its Norwegian heritage can still be seen in the businesses and homes clustered around the charming downtown area of Poulsbo.
Standard Hotel: Comfort Inn Auburn - Seattle / Red Lion Inn & Suites Federal Way or similar

Special Notes:

1. Along the way of Wonderland Trail, we will arrange parking for 1-2 attractions according to the actual situation: Narada Falls, Paradise Visitor Center (including glacier overlooking, Wildflower meadow at Paradise, etc. in case of bad winter weather conditions, we will go to the Longmire Museum instead.)

2. Mt Rainier National Park is mountainous tourist attractions. In order to ensure the proper time to visit each scenic location, we highly recommend guests to prepare lunch foods in advance.

3. In the case of heavy snowfall during the winter season, the schedule of going uphill at Mount Rainier National Park may be halted. We will instead enjoy the breathtaking views at the foot of the mountain instead.

4. If the national park is closed, the itinerary will be changed from Mount. Rainer National Park to the Museum of Flight with our special offer of free tickets to our guests.

  • Mount Rainier National Park, WA

    Duration: Approx. 2 Hours 30 Minutes

    Recycled Spirits of Iron Sculpture Park

    For many years, metal sculptor Dan Klennert has been creating works of rusting art that spring from junkyards, farm piles, and donations. He assembles overall sculptures from what he has on hand and how they come together in his mind, unlike looking for pieces to fit into a preconceived sculpture.

    Duration: Approx. 15 Minutes

    Paradise Visitor Center

    Paradise is famous for its glorious views and wildflower meadows. When James Longmire's daughter-in-law, Martha, first saw this site, she exclaimed, "Oh, what a paradise!" The park's main visitor center, the Henry M. Jackson Memorial Visitor Center, is located in the upper parking area. Paradise is also the primary winter-use area in the park, receiving on average 643 inches (53.6 feet/16.3 meters) of snow a year.

    Duration: Approx. 1 Hour 30 Minutes

    Narada Falls

    At only 150 feet from the road to Paradise, Narada Falls is the largest waterfall accessible by car in the park, and one of the most impressive. Here the Paradise River plunges over the edge of a relatively recent flow of hard andesite lava that abuts much older rock.

    Duration: Approx. 20 Minutes
