Family Programs

Explore America’s natural beauty close to home. Bring your immediate or extended family out into Olympic National Park for a fun and relaxing weekend with Olympic Park Institute!

 

Your adventure at Olympic Park Institute is tailored for the families who join us each weekend. Activities could include: paddling our 34-foot Salish canoe on beautiful Lake Crescent, hiking to Marymere Falls with a naturalist who has plenty of fun family activities up his or her sleeve, catching and examining streamside critters to learn about the watershed and ecosystem of Olympic National Park, enjoying s’mores and campfire songs together, listening to a S’Kllallam storyteller. You also have your choice to sign up for varied activities like yoga on the lakeshore, family crafts, swimming, investigating skins and skulls of park creatures, night hikes, and more!

 

Your family will enjoy healthy and hearty meals with vegetarian options served in historic Rosemary Inn, and stay in a room with your family in our cabins with shared bathrooms.

Family adventure weekends: April 16-18, May 14-16, June 4-6 and June 11-13
 

Family retreat: Spend Memorial Day weekend (May 28-31) on Lake Crescent with your family! This adventure offers an optional day trip deeper into the park and an extra night here in your cabin.

 

Family adventure weekends are $195 per adult, $145 per child, and children 4 years old and under are free. Children must be accompanied by an adult throughout their time on campus.
Family retreat pricing will vary if your family chooses to stay for the added trip.
