  • Nice trail, it changes through about 2 or 3 thousand feet from, small pines, lush waterfalls and fern infested trails through optional cutoffs that lead to the majestic Reflections Lake ( given for it's mirror image of the Mount Rainier Peak). The trail is a moderate hike anywhere from 5 to 8 miles and diverse from the climate changes.

    This trail is moderate and populated but bring the proper clothes for this high elevation, it is a bit cooler then sea level.

    Mount Rainier National Park is a hiking, backpacking, climbing mecca for good reason. With stunning Mount Rainier as its epicenter, it's no wonder so many people come to climb to its top, hike around its perimeter or just hike in its splendid shadow. With hundreds of miles of trails for all skill levels, get out and enjoy The Mountain up close.

    Good hiking boots and warm cushioned socks are a must. Bring layers of synthetics to stay warm and do not forget your rain gear. Coming to tackle the Wonderland Trail? Bring a tent, sleeping bag, mat, cooker and means of treating the water. Climbing the massive one? Contact a guiding company in advance and make sure you are ready. It's not a walk in the park!

    The best way to see this park, or any park, is to get out and explore. Ranier has numerous easy to moderate trails that can give you a better perspective on the area and get you away from the roadside congregations and visitor center tourist masses. A permit is required for backcountry hiking, but if you have a couple of days and enough experience to go out there, go and see the seldom explored portions of this beautiful landscape.
