This lovely spot is just downstream from a delightful attraction along Hood Canal at Rocky Brook Falls, Brinnon.
Although 50 miles from Sequim, if one camps at Dosewallips State Park (a gem in its own right), the falls are only 4 miles away and a short walk from the parking lot.
The 229-foot falls have undoubtedly been photographed thousands of times by many photographers, hikers, and more, but because of the lush color of the trees and the moss covered rocks, I much prefer the calm of the stream. It sits adjacent to the entrance path, and offers visitors the opportunity to step down and actually touch the water. But if, like me, if you decide to set up a tripod in order to make the “perfect” photo, remember that moss covered rocks can be very slippery (!), and if you fail to watch your step, you may get rather wet…
But aside from that, the falls are one of many located on the Welcome to the Olympic Peninsula Waterfall Trail website and while some are considerably closer to Sequim, they may not be as accessible, or as beautiful.
