1313. Rialto Beach to Hole in the Wall, Olympic National Park
This easy four-mile hike is little more than a stroll on a Washington State beach. It shouldn’t take more than two hours. The hike begins at the official Rialto Beach parking lot. It ends near the huge sea stacks.
As you go, you’ll see large piles of driftwood and little tidepools. Check out the ocean along your way and you might see sea lions, otters, and whales there. Once you are at the well-known Hole in the Wall, you might want to explore the coastline too. Summer is fine for this hike but know that if you go too early in the morning the beach may very well be fog covered.
