6. Gifford Pinchot National Forest, Washington
Located in southern Washington, Gifford Pinchot National Forest is the perfect recreational getaway for those who live nearby. Here you can find pristine lakes, plenty of hiking trails, various wildflowers, and many mountain vistas, including the second highest peak in Washington, Mount Adams.
However, the thing that makes Gifford Pinchot National Forest unique is most likely its unusual terrain of tunnels and caverns formed from lava many years ago. Nonetheless, there are many hidden gems in the heart of this beautiful forest, but some absolute musts are Ape Caves, Lewis River Falls, Takhlakh Lake, Panther Creek Falls, and Goose Lake.
