Sol Duc Falls is located in the northern part of Olympic National Park. Park at the end of the road, passing a hotel and multiple campsites. Since the trail is 1.6 miles round trip, this trail is quite popular and also very family friendly. While the trail isn’t crowded, it is possible to find pockets of solitude to enjoy the old-growth forest. The roar of the waterfalls can be heard long before seeing it. On reaching the large bridge, look across to check out the waterfall and capture some wonderful photos! Continue along the bridge to capture the waterfall from many more multiple angles.
