Great walk among big and very old trees.

Box Canyon is a narrow, dramatic gorge carved by the Muddy Fork of the Cowlitz River. It’s a quick but impressive stop along the Wonderland Trail, with a footbridge offering a dizzying view into the deep slot canyon below.

The Nisqually River crossing on the Wonderland Trail is a memorable and dynamic section, located near the southern side of Mount Rainier, typically between Maple Creek Camp and Paradise River Camp. The river itself is one of Rainier’s largest and most powerful, fed directly by the Nisqually Glacier high on the mountain’s southern face. The riverbed is wide and braided, with silt-heavy water often roaring through multiple channels. The crossing is usually made via a sturdy log or footbridge, though the exact setup can change from year to year depending on flooding, glacial melt, or storm damage—always check current conditions before your hike. The approach to the river offers expansive views up the wide, rocky riverbed toward the glacier, with Rainier looming behind, framed by shifting clouds or alpenglow in the right light.

Faraway Rock is an accessible overlook on the Mazama Ridge Trail in Mount Rainier National Park. From the top of Faraway Rock, you get panoramic views of Lake Louise and the Tatoosh Ridge, which includes Tatoosh, Stevens, Plummer, Unicorn, Foss, and Pinnacle Peaks. From here you can keep going on the Mazama Ridge Trail to a tarn and the intersection of the High Lakes Trail, or you can loop back to the trailhead and parking area at Reflection Lakes via the Lower Lakes Trail.

The hike to this saddle offers beautiful views of Mount Rainier from the south, dense forests, and the Nisqually River Valley. There are climber's trails to some nearby peaks if you continue on from here.

Here you can find ancient giants and a thriving forest floor. Follow the meandering trails, boardwalks, and bridges as you walk in the the presence of centuries-old trees

Narada Falls is a 168-foot waterfall fed from the Paradise River. There are two distinct tiers which make it very unique. Take a brief stroll below the road for the best viewing spot, but be mindful of the occasionally slippery path.

A picturesque trail that meanders through a series of enchanting alpine lakes. Starting from the Reflection Lakes parking area, follow the Wonderland Trail along the lakeshore, then transition to the Lower Lakes Trail at the first junction. As you continue, stay right onto the High Lakes Trail, where you'll be treated to a serene journey, passing by charming lakes and gentle stream crossings.
