Hotels Close to Mt. Rainier
Mount Rainier, the tallest mountain in Washington and in the Cascade Range at 14,411 feet, is located about 55 miles southeast of Seattle in the Mount Rainier National Park. The mountain, an active composite volcano, is notoriously difficult to climb due to the large amount of glacier terrain. The 93-mile long Wonderland Trail traverses the 3 summits. Popular activities in the region include skiing, snowshoeing, hiking, mountain biking and climbing. All lodging options have spectacular views of Mount Rainier.
