One positive thing about this year is that we’ve all had plenty of time to plan our future Pacific Northwest adventures. And as our beautiful state begins to open back up, Washingtonians everywhere are ready to get back out and enjoy nature. If you have yet to experience the Hall of Mosses Trail in the Hoh Rainforest, don’t let one more year go by before you do.

The Hoh Rainforest is located on the ruggedly beautiful Olympic Peninsula.

The best way to experience the Hoh for the first time — or the 10th time — is to hike the Hall of Mosses trail.

Start at the Hoh Rain Forest Visitor Center. From there, you'll find the Hall of Mosses trailhead.
This trail is only about a mile in length, but once you step foot on it, you'll feel like you've walked right into a Grimm's fairytale.

Tall, dense trees covered in moss surround you, and the air is thick with moisture and the smell of lush green plants.
