This is no place for people who don’t like to enjoy themselves. Drift down the rapids of Lyre River in a kayak. Paddling on Soleduck River - North Fork is so much fun, and hey, Canyon Creek is a glorious local stream.
So many cool things to do in the Olympic Mountains, not sufficient time. If you came for an overnight stay Fairholme Campground is a brilliant site to camp, and everyone loves Bogachiel Park. Sol Duc Falls is an inspiring place to pop by while here, and this is a popular place for folks from Port Angeles. Why not camp at Soleduck Campground since you're here at Lovers Lane; swing by Blackwood Creek it's a good place to take a look at.
