About this campground

While the historic Hurricane Ridge Day Lodge was destroyed in a fire, the small but mighty Visitor Contact Station is here to help! While rangers are present to answer questions during open hours in summer, please be aware there is no indoor space for visitors or running water available.

Getting there

From Port Angeles, take Hurricane Ridge Road. Five miles up the road, you will pass through the park entrance station. Continue another 12 miles to Hurricane Ridge. The road is narrow and winding, and the drive from Port Angeles takes about 45 minutes. Watch for animals and fallen rock on the road.
