Wonderland Trail

The Wonderland Trail is a 93-mile hiking trail that circumnavigates Mount Rainier. The trail goes over many ridges of Mount Rainier for a cumulative 22,000 feet of elevation gain. The trail was built in 1915 and is now designated as a National Recreation Trail. The average time it takes to complete the entire trip is 10-14 days. You will travel from lowland forests to subalpine meadows to the faces of 25 named glaciers. The hiking season is late summer to early fall because of the elevation and hikers always need to be prepared for wind and even a snow storm! Go Hike and Enjoy!!
