Mount Rainier National Park Washington Retro

Sunset over Mount Rainier and Cascade Mountains and a valley of wildflowers in Mount Rainier National Park. Mount Rainier National Park, located in Washington state, was established in 1899 as the fifth national park in the United States and is centred around the iconic, glacier-covered Mount Rainier, a 14,411-foot active stratovolcano. Major attractions include the scenic Paradise area, famous for its wildflower meadows and panoramic mountain views, and the Sunrise area, the highest point in the park accessible by car, offering stunning vistas of Rainier and surrounding peaks. Visitors also enjoy exploring the Wonderland Trail, a challenging 93-mile trail that encircles the mountain, and seeing waterfalls like Narada Falls and Myrtle Falls.
