Reviews of Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge
"Breathtaking drive from Tacoma and even more breathtaking views once you park and hike."
"Adequate parking, clean restroom, beautifully forested area, and well kept path. The trail is wide and flat but a bit steep down to the water. But what's at the bottom is well worth the trip back up. Besides there are benches and other structures to sit on if you want to stop, rest, and enjoy. Largest natural sand spit"
"Beautiful scenery from well maintained trail. Make sure not to take home rocks, plants, shells or driftwood. Park rangers are helpful. Get a national park pass to save money and support the parks. Great place to exercise. Nice place for families. The trail to the beach is a bit steep so be careful."
"Many experiences to be had. The main trail is a 1/2 mile through the wooded uplands. Variety of plants and some animals. The overlook at the bluff offers great views across the Straits and out along the spit. The trail starts down, the first 80 feet is steep at 33% to a second overlook which has a clearer view to the east and Mt. Baker was visible on the horizon. From here, the trail continues to drop another 80 feet, but much shallower (16% grade) to the beach. We stopped on the beach and enjoyed the sun, surf and explored the driftwood, rocks, bluffs and watched the sea birds. The upland trail is steady downward grade, similar to a trail on an old railroad route. It feels paved and pavement is visible, but much of it has a layer of sand or dirt, making it a bit softer than asphalt. Thus, wheelchair users should have little difficulty. We didn't take the 5 mile walk to the Lighthouse, although most did. The beach, at low tide, is solid and provides a good walking service, so steady walking, it will be 2 1/2 hours out and back; plus time to take a tour of the lighthouse. It's a highlight for many visitors."
"Wow! This is an incredible place to visit! The hiking trail out to the spit is dropdead gorgeous. It is a bit of a hike though. Definitely bring water and hiking poles. It's worth the long hike because you'll be rewarded with incredible views, wildlife, and scenery. The primitive trail is more serene and I found it to be more organic than the paved trail, but it is longer to hike. There is an information center where you can learn more about the habitat, guided tours, etc. There is also a campground just before you get to the nature center. I highly recommend visiting this unique and interesting destination."
