Pinnacle Peak Trail

Hiking Trail

The Pinnacle Peak trail is a short but steep hike to a spectacular close up view of Mount Rainier. From the summit you’ll also be able to take in views of Paradise, Mount Saint Helens, Mount Adams, and, if the weather permits, Mount Hood in Oregon. The trail follows an out and back route. Because of the steep grades throughout, most hikers consider this a hard hike. The Pinnacle Peak trail is one of the most popular hikes for Strava members visiting the park. The National Park Service advises that hikers wear sturdy footwear with ample grip as this trail often has snow on the top year round.
