About this campground

Five Mile Island Campsites

Five Mile Island Campsites, nestled along the Enchanted Valley Trail in Olympic National Park, offers primitive backcountry camping with scenic river and forest views. These are dispersed-style campsites—no established pads—with pit toilets nearby, but no potable water, picnic tables, or fire rings (campfires prohibited). RVs and hookups are not accessible. A wilderness permit (no fee) is required, and reservations are needed via Recreation.gov during peak season. Surrounded by lush rainforest along the Quinault River, the area is ideal for backpackers seeking solitude, with nearby trails leading to waterfalls and alpine vistas. Best visited from late spring to early fall when trail conditions are favorable.
