Weekend Adventures in Olympic Peninsula

Gorgeous beaches, lush forests, and a massive national park afford plenty of things to do on Washington’s diverse Olympic Peninsula.
Bounded on the west by the Pacific Ocean and on the north by the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Washington’s Olympic Peninsula is home to temperate rain forests, pristine beaches, multiple ecosystems, coastal communities, and a massive national park.

**If you are interested, add your name to waitlist. We will select people based on fit with our group, expecting group size to be 4-8.

Expecting the cost of staying at a nice Airbnb will be around $115/person with individual separate bedrooms. Since Airbnb cost is not-refundable, you will need to prepay to get a spot on this trip. And around $40 per person to split the cost of car/gas

Still finalizing plans for things to do from all the possible options:

What to bring:

• Positive attitude and a sense of adventure goes a long way

• Always a good practice to be equipped with The 10 essentials during hikes. Here is the link.

My hiking style is to stop frequently by creeks, wild-flower meadows, geological marvels and conversation, and not to rush through it. We stay together as a group. I give preference to new members, and those with good attendance record and complete profile. I value those who had a very positive impression on me during my previous hike. Please don't feel entitled to a spot. I reserve the right to remove anyone from the hike if there are not a good fitness or social fit with my hikes. Canceling after 8 pm on the the day before hike will result in a no-show on your record.
