Olympic National Park
Hoh Rain Forest
Visitor Center - The visitor center has maps and exhibits about trees, mosses, lichens and wildlife. Learn to identify tracks of black bears, black tailed deer, Roosevelt elk, flying squirrels and river otters.
Hall of Mosses Trail - This is a lovely hike through the lush rain forest, under spreading maple trees covered with wispy “club mosses” and blanketed with ferns. Huge Sitka spruce trees are fallen by the side of the trail, the logs a new home for trees and plants.
The loop trail, less than one mile round trip, is easy and fun for little kids. The dramatic moss-covered trees are alive with the magic of an enchanted forest.
