Hiking Olympic National Park

Dose Terrace Trail

This trail forms a 1.2-mile loop that begins at the Dosewallips Ranger 
Station. Although brief, there are many small-scale climbs and descents along 
the way that provide plenty of exercise. It travels through a stately lowland 
forest on the bluffs above the Dosewallips River, a forest that took hundreds 
of years to reach maturity. The turquoise pools and tumbling riffles of the 
Dosewallips can often be seen along the route, and several spur paths provide 
access to the water's edge.
