Through more than a half-mile of lowland forest the trail climbs gradually, then steeply for the last eighth-mile to Marymere Falls. Average hiking time (round trip): 1 1/2 hours.
The path takes you to the edge of the Olympic Wilderness. From a human-shaped world you are about to step into terrain dominated by other forces. There are give other short, easy Touch of Wilderness hikes in the park at Staircase, Pioneer Visitor Center, Soleduck, La Push and Ozette. Each trail enters a different environment: coastal, river and lowland forests, waterfalls and tidepools.

Marymere Falls is located in Olympic National Park near Lake Crescent in Washington, United States. The falls are accessed by a one-mile, well maintained, dirt trail through old-growth lowland forest consisting of fir, cedar, hemlock, and alder trees. Falls creek descends from Aurora Ridge and tumbles over Marymere Falls and then flows into Barnes Creek. It has a height of 90 feet. The falls is one of the more popular attractions in the area, due to ease of access and proximity to U.S. Highway 101.
