We are in Forks, Washington exploring the town and visiting the Olympic National Park hiking to secluded beaches and remote viewpoints. We finish our Pacific Northwest road trip to the Olympic National Park by showing you Second Beach, Rialto Beach, Neah Bay, Cape Flattery and Forks, Washington, the Twilight movie series mecca that draws thousands of fans each year.

Some of the highlights of the trip to Forks are the local restaurants and taphouses. The Westend Taphouse had a great selection of beers and food. We enjoyed the cider and gose on our visit. The Longhouse Cafe had a great take on an old meal. The Rez Burger was a seasoned patty on a frybread bun. Very unique and very delicious.

All around town, establishments celebrated the Twilight movie series. We visit a store that had all things Twilight that would satisfy any fan. The Forks Chamber of Commerce had displays and souvenirs for sale in their gift shop.

Olympic National Park is a diverse and expansive national park located on the Olympic Peninsula in the state of Washington. It covers nearly 1 million acres and is renowned for its stunning variety of ecosystems, ranging from rugged coastlines to temperate rainforests and alpine peaks.

The park includes 73 miles of wild Pacific coastline, featuring sandy beaches, rocky headlands, tide pools, and sea stacks. Notable beaches include Rialto Beach, Second Beach, Third Beach, Ruby Beach, and Kalaloch Beach.

Olympic National Park is home to some of the largest temperate rainforests in the contiguous United States. The Hoh Rainforest and the Quinault Rainforest are particularly famous for their lush, green landscapes, moss-draped trees, and high annual rainfall.

The Olympic Mountains form the park's backbone, with Mount Olympus being the highest peak at 7,980 feet. The alpine regions feature glaciers, wildflower meadows, and breathtaking views.


**Hiking and Backpacking**: There are hundreds of miles of trails, from easy nature walks to challenging backcountry routes. Popular hikes include the Hoh River Trail, Hurricane Ridge, and the Enchanted Valley.
**Camping**: The park offers numerous campgrounds, including both front-country sites accessible by car and backcountry sites for more remote camping experiences.
**Water Activities**: Kayaking, canoeing, and fishing are popular on the park's lakes and rivers.


The park has several visitor centers, including the main Olympic National Park Visitor Center in Port Angeles, which provide educational exhibits, ranger programs, and information to help visitors explore the park responsibly.

***About***
We are Ron and Jodi. We have been together since 1992 and have been traveling and exploring around the Pacific Northwest and beyond the entire time. Please join us as we go rambling around our next 30 years while living our “work hard, play hard” philosophy. We will try to show as much of our adventures, tips and reviews as we can through our journey practicing for retirement.

This channel will be about adventures big and small, weekend getaways traveling in the motorhome exploring our region to flying away on extended vacations discovering new destinations. We hope to inspire others to make time to travel, explore and discover what our land has to offer.
