Hello Travelers,
Most people think you have to cross oceans to wander through a rainforest. But what if we told you that the U.S. is home to three—each a world of its own.
🌲 Hoh Rainforest, Washington
Tucked inside Olympic National Park, the Hoh Rainforest is a moss-draped, emerald dreamscape. Ancient trees tower overhead while fog hangs low like a secret. You’ll walk beneath canopies that feel enchanted, where every step squishes softly and elk sometimes wander the trail beside you.
Don’t miss:
- The Hall of Mosses Trail – short, surreal, and straight out of a fairy tale
- Stargazing at night after the mist clears—yes, it’s magic
🌴 El Yunque National Forest, Puerto Rico
The only tropical rainforest in the U.S. Forest Service, El Yunque is a symphony of waterfalls, orchids, and coquí frogs. It’s alive with sound, color, and life. Every hike is a dance with nature—humid, lush, and full of surprises.
Don’t miss:
- Hiking to La Mina Falls for a waterfall swim
- Climbing the Yokahu Tower for panoramic rainforest views
🌺 Nā Pali Coast Rainforest, Hawaiʻi
You’ll have to hike, boat, or helicopter in—but once you reach it, the Nā Pali rainforest is pure Jurassic-level wonder. Soaring cliffs, hidden valleys, and mist-laced ridgelines make it feel like another planet. It’s one of the most isolated and photogenic rainforests on Earth.
Don’t miss:
- Kalalau Trail (even part of it is unforgettable)
- Taking a catamaran along the coast—sea caves, dolphins, and sea spray included
✈️ So… where are you headed first?
Rainforests aren’t just for faraway lands—they’re right here, waiting to blow your mind. Whether you’re craving waterfalls, mossy trails, or tropical sounds, these rainforests deliver adventure in its purest form.
Carry a tote. Carry a story. Carry a country.
Happy Travel!
