Very nice and easy trail. The view is great, you can surely stop and enjoy the nice lake view and the fresh air! Next to the lodge, there’s a gazebo which can be nice in a sunny day, though with such a view we chose to be closer to trees and their shade. Lots of parking spaces available.

I try to make this trip every year. There’s just something about meandering along this gorgeous stretch of road. Waterfalls, river, forest, Mountain View’s…everything beautiful at your fingertips. Just breathtaking!

We biked the 33 miles around the lake and it was beautiful! The road up around Bunch Falls is rutted and gravelly for bikes but is nothing special for a car.

A scenic campground about 7 miles away and 2,600 feet up from the North Quinault Trailhead. There are several sites to choose from, most of which are large enough to accommodate two 2-person tents each. Since you're above 3,000 feet, no campfires permitted, and hammock campers have fewer options than they'd have at riverside campsites within ONP. No toilet to speak of -- at least none marked -- th... A scenic campground about 7 miles away and 2,600 feet up from the North Quinault Trailhead. There are several sites to choose from, most of which are large enough to accommodate two 2-person tents each. Since you're above 3,000 feet, no campfires permitted, and hammock campers have fewer options than they'd have at riverside campsites within ONP. No toilet to speak of -- at least none marked -- that I saw in the one night I stayed there. Campsites are spaced apart enough to give a good sense of privacy too. Good basecamp to explore Tshletshy Ridge or Finley Peak. Lastly, while the you can use the lake for a water source, there's always the logistical challenge of getting to water deep enough to fill a bottle without getting too much sediment but not so deep that your shoes get filled with water. If you want to avoid this, you may have to walk a few hundred feet (depending on the campsite you choose) to a stream with good enough flow to easily capture water and stay dry.
