Murhut Falls — Saturday, Jun. 28, 2025

Olympic Peninsula > Hood Canal

Decided to shoot over to this trailhead after spending part of our afternoon hiking the Steam Donkey Trail over in the Dosewallips valley — a great way to end an afternoon of hiking out on the peninsula.

The road to the trailhead is fine for all cars, but drivers be aware of potholes if, like us, you get distracted by herds of elk or baby fawns gamboling along the roadside. 

The trail itself is pretty nice, though I think the viewpoint at the falls needs a little WTA TLC, perhaps in the form of railings and a firming up of the shoulder, which is prematurely eroding from overeager photographers or those making their way to the waterfall pool.
