Description

The Sol Duc Falls Nature Trail can be done in either direction and in sections. From wherever you are in the campground or hot springs resort, you can access this trail for a pleasant, non-motorized way to get to the Sol Duc Falls. The trail rolls gently uphill along the Sol Duc River valley through lush, mossy forest. After reaching the junction with the Sol Duc River Trail near the parking lot (at the end of Sol Duc Road), it is only a short distance further on to the Sol Duc Falls.
