The most popular day hike at Lake Crescent is the 0.9 mile one way trail to Marymere Falls. This trail goes through old growth forest to a 90-foot waterfall. The trail starts from the Storm King Ranger Station but can also be accessed from Lake Crescent Lodge. On the other side of lake, accessed from either the East Beach Road or Camp David Junior Road, the Spruce Railroad Trail hugs the shore of Lake Crescent for 4 miles. As a continuation of the Olympic Discovery Trail, bicycles and pets are permitted on this trail. Longer and much steeper trails lead to Pyramid Peak and part way up Mount Storm King. The Pyramid Peak trail is accessed from Camp David Junior Road and climbs 2,600 feet in 3.5 miles; one section of the trail crosses a steep, exposed landslide. The Mount Storm King trail leaves from the Marymere Falls trail and switchbacks up 2,000 feet in 2.2 miles.
