Details

Pratt Lake Trail

The Pratt Lake Trail accesses a number of areas and offers an almost unlimited amount of possibilities for hiking, fishing, and scrambling. At 3.0 miles hikers approach Talapus and Olallie Lakes. Both of these areas are heavily overused and are very popular day hike destinations.

Talapus Lake Trail

This moderate hike is very popular with first time backpackers and families with children. The trail begins on an overgrown logging road through an old clearcut, enters forest shade and switchbacks up a hillside to a marshy area below Talapus Lake. Paths here branch in several directions. The main trail crosses the outlet on a bridge and at 2.0 miles comes to Talapus Lake (a good stopping point). The trail continues 1.25 miles to Olallie Lake. This area offers little privacy or seclusion due to overuse.
