Olympic Discovery Adventure Trail & Salt Creek
The Adventure portion of the Olympic Discovery Trail runs from the west side of the Elwha River (west of Port Angeles) to the east end of Lake Crescent, where it connects with the Spruce Railroad Trail, and then continues west toward Forks and La Push.
This trail is primarily for Mountain biking and horses. We only saw a couple of other bikers the day we were here.
It is a pretty good climb out of the trailhead but rolls once you reach the top. What a great day.
Salt Creek Recreation Area County Park has national park aesthetics, with County Park amenities. The 196-acre Park includes upland forests, rocky bluffs, rocky tide pools, sand beach, Salt Creek access, campsites, and panoramic views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Crescent Bay, and Vancouver Island, British Columbia
