Ukuhlanganisa amahektare angaba yizigidi eziyi-1, i-Olympic National Park inikeza izinto eziphilayo ezintathu ezihlukene ukuze zihlolwe: ihlathi elingaphansi kwe-subalpine kanye ne-wildflower meadow; ehlathini elithambile; kanye nolwandle lwasePacific. Ngamunye uhlinzekela ukuvakashelwa kwayo okuyingqayizivele epaki ngezilwane zasendle eziqhakazile, izigodi zasemvula yamvula, iziqongo zeqhwa, nezintaba ezimangalisayo. Le ndawo inhle kakhulu futhi ayitholakali ukuthi iye yabizwa ngokuthi yi-biosphere international reserve kanye ne-World Heritage site yiZizwe Ezihlangene.
Umlando
UMengameli uGrover Cleveland wadala i-Olympic Forest Reserve ngo-1897 kanti uMongameli Theodore Roosevelt wakhetha iNtaba i-Olympus National Monument ngo-1909. Ngenxa yesincumo sikaMongameli uFranklin D. Roosevelt, iCongress yasayina umthethosivivinywa obeka amahektha angu-898,000 njenge-Olympic National Park ngo-1938. eminyakeni emithathu kamuva, ngo-1940, uRoosevelt wanezela amanye amakhilomitha angamakhilomitha angama-300 epaki. Ipaki yaphinde yanda ukuba ihlanganise nehlane elingasogwini elingama-75 ngo-1953 sibonga uMongameli uHarry Truman.
Isikhathi Sokuvakashela
Ipaki ivuliwe unyaka wonke futhi iyathandwa phakathi nehlobo ngoba yisikhathi "esomile". Yilungele ukushisa okupholile, ubumnyama, nemvula ethile.
Ukufika Lapho
Uma ushayela epaki, zonke izindawo zepaki zingafinyelelwa yi-US Highway 101. Kusukela engxenyeni enkulu ye-Seattle ne-I-5, ungafinyelela ku-US 101 ngemizila eyahlukahlukene:
- I-Cross Puget Sound kwenye yezimoto ze-Washington State Ferry System nemishini yokuhamba
- Shayela eningizimu kuya eTacoma, uthathe u-State Route 16, uphinde uwele i-Puget Sound ku-Tacoma Narrows Bridge
- Shayela eningizimu kuya e-Olympia uphinde ufinyelele ku-US 101
Kulabo abasebenzisa insizakalo yomkhumbi, iCoho Ferry iyatholakala kulo lonke unyaka phakathi kukaVictoria, iBritish Columbia nePort Angeles.
Uhlelo lwe-Ferry State Ferry lukhonza imizila eminingi ngaphesheya kwe-Puget Sound, kodwa aluhlinzeki ngenkonzo ngaphakathi noma ngaphandle kwe-Port Angeles.
Kulabo abagibela epaki, iWilliam R. Fairchild International Airport yindawo enkulu ePort Angeles futhi iyisikhumulo sezindiza esiseduzane ne-Olympic National Park. Izimoto zokuqashisa nazo ziyatholakala esikhumulweni sezindiza. I-Kenmore Air nayo enye inketho njengoba izindiza zezindiza zihamba ngezindiza eziyisikhombisa zansukuzonke zokuhamba phakathi kwePort Angeles neSttle's Boeing Field.
Imali / Izimvume
Kukhona imali yokungenisa ukungena e-Olympic National Park. Le mali inhle kuze kufike ezinsukwini eziyisikhombisa ezilandelanayo. Izindleko ziyi-$ 14 yemoto (futhi ihlanganisa abagibeli bakho) no-$ 5 umuntu ohamba ngezinyawo, ibhayisikili, noma isithuthuthu.
I-America I-Passion Enhle iyamukelwa e-Olympic National Park futhi izophinde ilahle imali yokungena.
Uma uhlela ukuvakashela ipaki izikhathi eziningi ngonyaka owodwa, cabanga ukuthenga i-Olympic National Park Annual Pass. Kudingeka imali engu-30 futhi kuzoyeka imali yokungena yonyaka owodwa.
Izinto okumelwe zenziwe
Lena ipaki enkulu yemisebenzi yangaphandle. Ngaphandle kwekamu, ukuhamba, ukudoba nokubhukuda, izivakashi zingakujabulela ukubuka izinyoni (kunezinhlobo ezingaphezu kuka-250 zezinyoni ezizozihlola!) Imisebenzi ye-tidepool, nemisebenzi yasebusika efana nezwe elihamba phambili kanye nokwehla kwezulu.
Qinisekisa ukuthi uhlola izinhlelo eziholwa ama-ranger njengezinhlelo ezihamba phambili zokuhamba ngomlilo, ngaphambi kokuvakasha kwakho.
Isimiso semicimbi sisekhasini 8 lephephandaba elisemthethweni lepaki, i- The Bugler .

Ukuze uthole olunye ulwazi, kufaka phakathi izindawo zokuhlala zeqembu, hlola isayithi le-NPS elisemthethweni.
Kulabo abanesithakazelo ekamu lokubuyiselwa emuva, izimvume zidingeka futhi zingatholakala ku-Wilderness Information Centre, izikhungo zezivakashi, iziteshi zokugada, noma izitimela.
