Pardon The Mess!

Robin Hill Farm County Park experienced a significant storm in November, causing many hazardous conditions. Those hazards have been addressed, but most park trails require restoration.

The county is partnering with FEMA, the Washington State Department of Ecology, the Washington State Department of Tourism, and local stakeholders to return the park to its pre-storm condition.

All work is being completed per the established Park Forestry Plan and will require many months.

Park Information

Robin Hill Farm County Park is located between Port Angeles and Sequim off Dryke Road, 0.25 miles north of U.S.101. The land-locked Park has 195 acres of forest, meadow, and wetland. There are approximately 3.4 miles of developed foot trails and 2.5 miles of equestrian trails.

Walk or run the shady park trails, or ride your horse through stands of tall Douglas Fir and along rolling meadows. Visit one of several ponds that dot the landscape or stretch your legs, with a stroll along the tree-covered trails. Your leashed dog will enjoy exploring the sights, sounds, and scents of this former farm property. The Olympic Discovery Trail gallops alongside the Park, providing a shady place for the trail user to rest.

The Olympic National Park has leased five acres of Robin Hill Farm County Park to construct and maintain a plant propagation facility. The native plants grown at the facility are being used in the re-vegetation effort in the Elwha River Valley where two former hydroelectric dams stood and the lake beds behind them.

There is an active volunteer Adopt-A-Park program that provides maintenance of Park facilities. Check out our volunteer opportunities, under the Parks Volunteers page, if you are interested in participating.

Trail User Information

Foot and bicycle users may use any trails. When encountering horses, on designated horse trails, pedestrians should step to the side of the trail, avoid sudden movements and talk to the rider. Bicyclists stop completely to yield to foot and horse users. Trail surfacing is often deep and soft and not conducive to cycling.

Horse trailers access the park via the Dryke Road park entrance.

Horses must remain on horse trails only. Horses should remain at a walking gait, including in the meadow area which has many hidden holes and irregularities.

Dogs must be on a leash and cleaned up after.
