Spider Lake is a hidden gem located in the beautiful Olympic National Forest. The looped path around the lake is a two-mile hike of pure beauty. There are a few tree roots and fallen logs on the path so bring a decent pair of shoes along with you.

This Trailhead starts the trek up Mount Rose Trail #814. The trail starts with a calm creek crossing, but then quickly moves into switchbacks and steep climb. All in all, this trail has around 3,500 feet of elevation gain by the time you reach the peak.

You'll reach a suspension bridge at this spot, allowing you to cross to the other side of the river. Take a moment to appreciate the river, its lively rapids, and the strikingly vivid blue hue of the water.

This Trailhead provides access to Lena Lake Trail, Upper Lena Lake Trail and The Brothers Trail that runs within the Brothers Wilderness. There is a large parking area on each side of the road, and a $5 per vehicle/ per day fee is required. A Recreation Pass is also an acceptable form of payment.

Lena Lake is a large and beautiful 55-acre body of water surrounded by old-growth forests. It is a very popular spot for walk-in campers who are backpacking in the area.
