Getting there

Drive to Queets River Trailhead, then hike 4.2 mi via Ford the Queets River, Queets River Trail to reach this trail.

Directions to road trailhead

Approach from Trail Atlas research (source), low confidence. Not field-checked. The ford is dangerous above ~800 cfs (NPS). A 2025 WTA trip report says reroutes and blowdown hide the old junction.

From public park, forest and WTA info. Roads and access change, so check before you go.
