    Hiking

    Make a short detour from the path and cross a small footbridge over the Edith Creek Basin to discover the captivating Myrtle Falls. With Mount Rainier as its backdrop, this 72-foot high waterfall is a popular spot for photographers and hikers. Its easy accessibility from Paradise Inn adds to its allure, making it an iconic destination worth exploring.

    Hiking

    Beautiful hiking area that is well signposted. There is a parking lot and a visitor center from where the hike can begin. You have to make sure you wear good clothes and, above all, good shoes. Very beautiful landscape and lots of nature and originality.

    You'll want to ditch your bike to hustle down a few steps here, but it's worth it for the great view of Myrtle Falls with Rainier's summit as a backdrop.
