Nature experience
Beautiful dog friendly park with easy hiking trails bordering the Dungeness River! The center is open daily and features fascinating taxidermy local birds. The center is also a family friendly place to learn about wildlife, fish, plants, and the peninsula geography.

Sightseeing
My top must see while in Port Angeles! This 18 mile road is 2 lane and paved. Drive safely or take a daily bus from downtown Port Angeles and emerge on the top of a mountain! Take in panoramic views of Mt Olympus and the inner olympics. Take a trail behind the main parking lot, or drive to trailheads past the Visitor Center or down Obstruction Point Road. Avoid busy times where the summer wait could be an hour +. In the summer time the main road is open 24 hours but it is a good idea to check the Olympic national park website for road closures.
