Quick Facts

Queets River Trailhead is the beginning of two trails, the Sam's River Loop (2.8 miles/4.5 km), and the longer (16.2 miles/26.1 km) Queets River Trail. Sam's River Loop is a level day hike through different ages and stages of temperate rain forest, but winter storms often damage this trail, so you may have to scramble over fallen trees and other obstacles!
