The BEST Natural Hot Spring Soak?!? | Olympic Hot Springs | Olympic National Park

Taylor and I went on a backpacking trip in Olympic Hot Springs located in Olympic National Park! Such a unique, beautiful spot and would highly recommend checking it out! It's about a 22 mile out-and-back along an abandoned road. Despite the elevation gain, it's not too bad. Many people bike it, so I would recommend doing that to save time and effort if you have a bike. Awesome no matter which way you choose to make the trek there, however!

I remember Olympic Hotsprings from back in the day (late 90s - early 2000s) . Can’t do it anymore but at that time it was a drive several miles from the Elwah Rangers Station to the trailhead. Once at the trailhead the hike was an easy 2.5 miles to the hotsprings. My how things have changed. Thanks for sharing your adventure. At your 5:46 mark is the original trailhead, park and walk the rest of the 2.5miles. And yes, those were almost ripe salmon berries, completely edible.

Cool! Yeah, I kept thinking about how nice it would be to be able to drive back there...I feel like it's even better now though because it's more in its natural state with way less people around to disturb it. Such an awesome experience!

How long did that 11 miles take to hike?

[@madsmind136]

im thinking of going but i dont want to sleep overnight

[@TaylorVStrong]

@@madsmind136 It took me about 3.5 hrs each way, so 7 total. I hit the trail around 6:30am. I only soaked in the hot springs for about an hour. I hiked it though, but if you bike it's wayyy faster. I would recommend doing that if you're wanting to do it in just a day
