#3 March – Olympic National Park, Washington
Beautiful wildflowers can be seen blooming as early as March in Olympic National Park in Washington State. As they move north from March to May, you can also see gray whales up close. This is just in time for the area to reopen after the long, snowy winter.
The spring is a wonderful time to explore Olympic National Park. First of all, the wildlife is amazing. Roosevelt elk are going to give birth to their offspring in the Hoh and Quinault Rainforests, and it’s especially amazing to see wildlife in the river valley as they eat the early spring foliage.
Secondly, the Olympic Peninsula is also known by the locals as “the valley of 10,000 waterfalls.” You can follow a waterfall trail to the most famous waterfalls in Olympic National Park. Among Olympic’s top waterfalls, we can find Enchanted Valley, Sol Duc Falls, Falls Creek Falls, and Madison Creek Falls.
Additionally, now is the best time to go on vacation in this area because, during the summer high season, there are more visitors and everything becomes more crowded.
