Day Hike - Pyramid Mountain

A wonderful combination of a bike ride and a hike. Ride six flat miles along the gorgeous Olympic Discovery Trail along the shore of beautiful Lake Crescent, then hike three and a half miles gently climbing to the summit of Pyramid with great views.

  • Road suitable for all vehicles

  • This section of the Olympic Discovery Trail is newly paved and is in great shape. It is a dedicated bike trail, with lots of people also hiking along it.  The trail up Pyramid in general is in excellent shape. However, about half way up, the trail crosses a washout that is about 100 - 150 yards wide and the footing on this section requires caution. A hiking pole helps a lot. 

We saw all five species of saprophytic plants!
