Local Trails

Mount Rainier National Park is an incredible area, with some of the most stunning topography and pristine wilderness in the lower 48 states. But most don't realize that the alpine lakes, mountain views, burbling streams and beautiful wildlife can be found just outside the parks borders as well! We've compiled a list of local trails around the Nisqually entrance to Rainier National Park; trails without the long lines and entrance fees. And best of all, they're all dog friendly!
