Mountain Biking Wynoochee Lake
#311 of 1,214 mountain bike trails in Washington
Wynoochee Lakeshore Trail is a 13 or 16.5 mile loop depending on whether you decide to ford the river or follow the trail the extra 2 miles each way to the bridge. There's lots of smooth single track here reminicent of the Lewis River Trail but also lots of ups and downs, excessive brush, and washouts. It's pretty much in the middle of nowhere and should be considered a real adventure trail. That said, there is a campground and swimming beach at the lake and logging roads close by to most of the trail. Thing is, people boat and swim here but don't hike more than the first few miles of the trail in each direction from the campground.

Get to Olympia and take highway 8 which becomes route 12. Exit route 12 at Montesano. From here, figure on an hour of driving the next 36 miles to the lake. Drive towards town and take a left on Pioneer. After about a mile, look for and take Wynoochee Road on the right. This windy road (#22) was paved in 2010 all the way to the lake. On weekdays logging trucks rule -- be ready to give way. Follow signs to Wynoochee Lake/Dam by taking a left on 2294 within a few miles of the lake. Park in the picnic/swimming area near the dam.
