Crystal Mountain summit
Atop Crystal Mountain, there are sweeping mountain views that tourists can enjoy while filling themselves with delectable food from the Summit House restaurant. Even the ride to the top in the Mt. Rainier Gondola is a great experience on its own.
Paradise snow play area
Families visiting the national park can bring the kids to the well-known snow play area at Paradise. There, people of any age can have fun sledding down the slope as squeals and laughter fill the cold air.
Oak Creek Wildlife Area
For nature lovers, there are daily winter-feeding activities in Oak Creek Wildlife Area. The place is actually one of the best locations in the entire U.S. for elk watching. Additionally, bighorn sheep are also fed at the nearby Cleman Mountain Feeding site.
