    Tips

    March 3, 2022

    The beautiful Mowich Lake is the largest and also deepest lake in Mount Rainier National Park and is nestled in a glacial basin. Besides perfect hiking trails around the lake, you are also allowed to boat on the lake and fishing is permitted as well. There is a rustic wilderness campground near the parking area which is a great basecamp. Be aware that the road to the lake is only open during the summer months (July to mid-October).

      Get your wilderness permit at the Carbon River Ranger Station first.
