Mt. St. Helens National Monument from Seattle: All-Inclusive Small-Group Tour

Overview
Explore Mt. St. Helens on a day tour tailored to you. Our local, TripAdvisor 'Hall of Fame' guides have been 'Certified Excellent' every year since 2010!

Walk along the blast-swept Eruption Trail with panoramic views of the devastation and the mountain’s crater. You may even glimpse a herd of Roosevelt elk! You’ll also have time to explore the Johnston Ridge Visitor Center.

What makes our tours most unique is that no two are the same! Our guides craft itineraries that reflect the best of what the Park has to offer that day. We’ll offer stops at some of our other favorite highlights like Coldwater Lake or the Hummocks Trail. This isn’t just another driving tour of a beautiful landscape - we prefer to keep travelers outside the vehicle for walks to experience our places firsthand.

Our all-inclusive small-group day trip is limited to just 10 travelers. We'll bring a local, organic, family-style lunch and eat outside when it's nice! Don’t worry about a thing!

The trip to Mount St. Helens was incredible. The stops at the Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge and the Lewis and Clark State Park were great side stops. The guide provided a lot of interesting information along the way.

Great experience! Tour guide was extremely personable and knowledgeable. A professional in her field- not someone given a crash course and turned loose.

It was spectacular to see Mount St. Helens and surrounding areas. Until you visit it’s hard to imagine the scale of destruction caused by the May 1980 eruption. The tour, hiking and background history and geology were great. Marty was an excellent guide and the ample food and drinks we ate all day were delicious (especially the cookie)!

Thanks for sharing! It really is amazing to see the power of the towering Mount St. Helens, but also really cool to see how life has bounced back since the eruption! Glad to hear you had a good time while exploring with us. Kind regards, DJ Bergquist Guest Experience & Sales Manager | Evergreen Escapes
