Take a hike to the forest and find a fantastic waterfall next to a small cave.

If you have been trying to get behind a waterfall Eatonville Falls is the place to hike and get a great feeling out of it. Hiking to the waterfall would lead you to a railroad and pass it would lead to a river where you would follow it down to get to the waterfall. The hike itself is pretty simple not a hard hike to do.

During the hike you can get a view from the top of the waterfall and also a very close view once you get down to the waterfall. The best part about the hike is getting behind the waterfall and touching the water with your hands, it's an amazing feeling and beautiful view.

At the end of the hike you want to make sure you have gone inside the little cave and take some great photos. Make sure to bring extra clothes incase you are trying to get wet. Have a good time hiking a fairly easy hike with a great waterfall at the end to make your day twice as better.

The hike itself is super simple. When you get to the falls there is opportunity for climbing the rocks and going beyond the falls. Super fun

Long hike with 2 kids ( 9 year old and 2 year old) I ended up carrying my son 3/4 of the way ( definitely would suggest for older kids or kids with experience hiking not exactly for a 2 year old or at least mine) was 100 degrees partially shaded but beautiful waterfalls

Hike the Upper Foothills Trail along the Carbon River

The upper Foothills Trail from the Fairfax Bridge to Manley Moore can be hiked starting from either end as an "out and back" hike or a "point to point" by shuttling with two vehicles.

Rainier, salmon, wildlife and the forest...

Hike to Gobbler's Knob

Entering the Park from the Southwest Entrance, bear left when you approach the forking Westside Rd. This road has been closed a few miles in due to massive rockfall. When you reach the road closure, just park along the side of the road. In Spring and Summer, you should be able to see plenty of other cars about, as the road is now used as a popular trail system for the Western half of the park. ...

Hike to Tolmie Peak's Fire Lookout

Mount Rainier is spectacular to look at, but sometimes the best views aren't from on its slopes, but just a little ways away. Tucked in the seldom-visited northwest corner of Mount Rainier National Park, the Tolmie Peak fire lookout frames the mountain's rugged slopes with a pristine alpine lake and rocky peaks. Start from the west side of deep-blue Mowich Lake, the largest in the park, and hi...

Hike to Eunice Lake in Mt. Rainier NP

Starting out from the beautiful Mowich Lake (4,929 ft), this hike takes you through some of Mt. Rainier Nation Park's best scenery. Thanks to the 13 miles of dirt roads it takes to even get to the trailhead, this hike is also rarely crowded. At 6.5 miles roundtrip to Eunice Lake, this is a great hike for beginners looking for a true alpine experience. The lake itself is so clear and blue tha...
