WTA Pro Tip: Save a copy of our directions before you leave! App-based driving directions aren't always accurate and data connections may be unreliable as you drive to the trailhead.

Getting There

From Port Angeles, follow Highway 101 west about 28 miles, passing Lake Crescent. Just beyond the lake, watch for the Olympic National Park sign for Sol Duc Valley Hot Springs Resort.

Turn left off 101 onto Sol Duc Hot Springs Road. Soon, you will come to a toll both where you will pay an entrance fee for the park. Continue on Sol Duc Hot Springs Road for approximately 12.5 miles until the end of the road where you will find parking for the trailhead.
