Pioneer Memorial Park

387 East Washington Street

Looking for a quiet place to explore in downtown Sequim? Pioneer Memorial Park is considered another local treasure. Originally part of pioneer John Bell’s homestead, the site was donated in 1909 and later transformed into Sequim’s first community park through the dedication of the Sequim Prairie Garden Club, local service groups, and volunteers.

Today, the park offers a peaceful setting filled with history and natural beauty. Visitors can enjoy an arboretum with a striking stand of gnarled Garry oaks, along with rhododendrons, shrubs, and perennials throughout the grounds. Picnic tables and garden benches invite guests to slow down and take in the surroundings.

Pioneer Memorial Park is also home to unique historic features, including an 1893 hand-hewn log cabin and a Jamestown S’Klallam totem. With its renovated clubhouse and charming setting, the park is also a pleasant spot for community gatherings and private celebrations.

Port Williams Beach
2499 Port Williams Road

At one time in the early 20^th century, Port Williams served as a primary gateway for commerce and passengers in the Dungeness Valley before the arrival of the railroad in 1914. None of those early structures remain. Now named Marlyn Wayne Nelson Memorial Park, Port Williams was deeded to Clallam County Parks in 1976.

Known for being quiet, meditative, and a hidden gem compared to more crowded tourist spots and beaches, Port Williams Beach is presently a quiet, one-acre coastal site located on the Strait of Juan de Fuca near Sequim. It is a perfect location for watching sunrises, with views of Protection Island and Canada across the water. 

The beach consists of a mix of gravel and sand, perfect for short walks and beachcombing. It is also a favorite dog walking spot. Amenities in this compact park include parking for vehicles, saltwater boat launch, picnic tables, benches and fire pits.


Hiking Trails Off Palo Alto Road

If you’re looking to explore beyond the busier routes this spring, the hiking trails off Palo Alto Road offer a peaceful side of Sequim that’s well worth discovering. As Palo Alto Road becomes Forest Service Road 28, it leads to scenic trailheads in the Olympic National Forest where hikers can enjoy towering old-growth Douglas firs, bright green moss, lush ferns, and the kind of dense forest canopy that feels timeless. Many of these trails follow the Dungeness River and nearby streams, adding beautiful river views and the calming sounds of flowing water along the way.

One standout is the Upper Dungeness Trail, which leads into Buckhorn Wilderness and offers a memorable mix of forest, river, and mountain scenery. Unlike the more heavily traveled trails in Olympic National Park, this area often feels quieter and more serene, making it a great choice for anyone seeking a true hidden gem. With options ranging from easy riverside walks to more challenging backcountry hikes, and lower-elevation access that can open earlier in the season, the Palo Alto Road trail system is a wonderful place to enjoy the natural beauty of the Olympic Peninsula.
