What to expect on Sequim Bay State Park – South Sequim Bay Wildlife Area loop from Dungeness Wildlife Area
This route offers a rich tapestry of landscapes, largely utilizing segments of the Olympic Discovery Trail (ODT) and quiet country roads. You'll enjoy sweeping waterfront views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Sequim Bay, winding through dense forests, open farmland, and picturesque river valleys. A notable highlight is crossing the Dungeness River, and if you ride during blooming season, you might even catch the aromatic beauty of the region's famous lavender farms. While the route is mostly paved and suitable for road bikes, some connecting segments might be unpaved, so be prepared for varied surfaces. It's a great ride for those who appreciate scenic diversity and a moderate challenge.
Planning your visit
The Sequim area benefits from the Olympic rain shadow, offering a drier and sunnier climate than much of the Pacific Northwest, which makes it a favorable destination for outdoor activities year-round. Parking is available at Sequim Bay State Park, a convenient starting point for this loop. Consider riding during the spring or fall for pleasant temperatures, or in summer to catch the lavender in bloom. Always carry enough water, especially on sunnier days.
