Paradise is known for the views and wildflower meadows. This part of Mt.Rainier is often snow covered until late in the summer. Be sure to bring a jacket and waterproof shoes if you’re planning to visit.
The Skyline Trail Loop is one of my favorite hikes in the park!
5.5 miles round trip and elevation gain of 1700ft with great views of wildflowers, Mt. Rainier, and the Nisqually Glacier.
