Small streams and waterfalls, Wynoochee River, Wynoochee Lake, old-growth and second growth forests are all part of the experience along this 16 mile loop trail.
The 16-mile Wynoochee Lake Shore Trail follows 6 miles along the lakeshore, extends another 2 miles upriver to a bridge over the Wynoochee River, then returns to the Coho campground in 8 miles on the opposite side of the river/lake. via fs.usda.gov

There is a lot of wash outs along the trail and the river crossing at the halfway point was about knee deep. The trail wasn't too difficult for the most part but you definitely need to be in decent shape. Some beautiful country with a lot of old growth. A few switch backs and some abrupt creeks at the bottom of some of the hills. Definitely could use some tlc but don't think it gets much traffic.
