Big Quil Dam Road

Trail Overview

This wide, well-maintained gravel road winds downhill through dense evergreen forest, offering frequent open views of the Quilcene River below. It is suitable for all vehicles, with occasional loose gravel and gentle switchbacks, and ends at a spacious turnaround just before a private dam; please respect private property and do not cross. At the bottom, there is excellent river access with a deep, clear swim hole ideal for warm days, along with several dispersed campsites, and visitors are encouraged to pack out all trash and use caution as river levels can vary seasonally.
