4 Day Itinerary
Honestly, 4 days on the Olympic Peninsula is ambitious. There is wonderful diversity from Alpine Meadows to waterfalls and rocky sea-stack beaches to rainforests. But with the right timing, you can see some of the highlights during a long weekend. The longest drive is from Seattle out to the Peninsula. Once you’re there, everything is within 1-2 hours from Port Angeles. During a quick trip, I recommend a night on the west coast to position you for perfectly for sunrise, cut down on your round trip drive times and maximize your time exploring!
