Last Minute Trip - Ozette Triangle Loop Backpacking

Details

This 9.5-mile hike provides a superb introduction to the coastal region of Olympic National Park. This hike is a loop hike, but it is called a triangle for its three prominent legs: the North Sand Point Trail and the Cape Alava Trail both originate at Ozette Campground, each reaching the coast at points that are approximately 3 miles apart; walking the coastline between the points connects the two trails to make the triangle-shaped loop.
Note that campfires are prohibited between Wedding Rocks and Yellow Banks; this may make the campsites at and just south of Cape Alava more attractive options, which may in turn shape your itinerary and traveling direction. Wilderness camping permits are required for such a trip. However you walk it, be prepared for miles of lush coastal rainforest and heaps of gorgeous views. If you are in the Ozette area of the park, this hike is certainly one of the highlights of the area.f you are in the Ozette area of the park, this hike is certainly one of the highlights of the area.
