How do you avoid crowds at Olympic National Park?
Lesser-visited areas If you're looking to really get away, head to Ozette, one of the most remote coastal areas of the park. It has beach access via hiking trails and it's the home of Ozette Lake, a large and quiet getaway. Of the rainforests, Hoh is by far the busiest. Meanwhile, Queets is the most remote.
How much time do you need in Olympic National Park?
At a minimum, you need three full days in Olympic National Park, if you want to visit Hurricane Ridge, the Pacific Coastline, and the temperate rainforests. However, more time is better, as it allows you to hike more trails and it gives you some contingency time should it rain or snow, which is entirely possible.
