1.25 miles ( a nice little workout, or very short drive) down the hill is this little park with water features for kids, and a walk by the water and train tracks. This is also where the Beach Tavern lives.

A beautiful 25 min drive, take the Olalla exit way for a bit more scenery. A 1.5 mile walk down to the water, and bit of a workout back up, very worth the effort. Dogs allowed.

Very popular year round; check weather and road conditions before visiting other than summer. National Park entry fee $30 (or buy an annual NP Pass). But if "the mountain is out" it is a very, very special site!

Tolls and HOV roads

You will see Toll booths and HOV lanes here. Pay attention to them; they will bill you. A Goodtogo pass may be worth investing in if you are here for more than a few days; it auto bills for both Toll and HOV roads.
