Tyler Peak Trail

Olympic Peninsula

updated 3 weeks ago

Based on reports from August 2026, the Tyler Peak Trail is snow-free and in good condition. One hiker noted minor obstacles that posed few problems on August 31. Another report from August 2 also described the trail as being in great shape. The road leading to the trailhead is consistently described as rough but passable. However, one report from August 31 details significant rocky sections on the spur road to the Tyler/Baldy Trailhead, requiring careful navigation and boulder removal. Parking was not an issue for one visitor on August 31, with no other cars at the trailhead, though the nearby Upper Dungeness trailhead had approximately 60 cars. No bugs were reported in either August report.
