Afisha Life | НАЙКРАЩИЙ одноденний тур до Національного парку Маунт-Рейнір із Сіетла

Маунт Рейнер

Гору Реньє оточує Стежка Країни Чудес і вкриває кілька льодовиків і снігових полів загальною площею близько 35 квадратних миль. Щороку Національний парк Маунт-Рейнір відвідує близько 1,8 мільйона людей! Гора Реньє у Вашингтоні є п’ятою найвищою горою Америки! Вершина гори вкрита снігом цілий рік. Коли сніг тане, вода стікає у великій кількості, яка потім створює найкрасивіші водоспади!

Перероблені спирти заліза, Скульптура

Протягом багатьох років скульптор по металу Ден Кленнерт створював витвори мистецтва, що іржавіє, що випливає зі звалищ, ферм і пожертвувань. Він збирає загальні скульптури з того, що має під рукою, і з того, як вони складаються в його розумі, на відміну від пошуку частин, які вписуються в заздалегідь продуману скульптуру.

Райська Петля

Paradise Visitor Center Рай славиться чудовими краєвидами та луками з дикими квітами. Коли невістка Джеймса Лонгміра, Марта, вперше побачила це місце, вона вигукнула: «О, який рай!» Головний центр для відвідувачів парку, Меморіальний центр для відвідувачів Генрі М. Джексона, розташований у верхній зоні паркування. Парадайз також є основною зимовою територією парку, де в середньому випадає 643 дюйми (53,6 футів/16,3 метра) снігу на рік.

5

Водоспад Нарада

Водоспад Нарада, розташований лише за 150 футів від дороги до Раю, є найбільшим водоспадом у парку, до якого можна дістатися на автомобілі, і одним із найвражаючих. Тут Райська річка занурюється через край відносно недавнього потоку твердої андезитової лави, яка стикається зі значно давнішою скелею.

Національний парк Маунт-Рейнір

Особливі примітки: 1. По дорозі Wonderland Trail ми організуємо паркування для 1-2 атракціонів відповідно до фактичної ситуації: водоспад Нарада, райський центр для відвідувачів (включаючи вид на льодовик, галявину диких квітів у раю тощо у разі поганих зимових погодних умов, замість цього ми підемо до музею Лонгмайр.) 2. Національний парк Mt Rainier - гірська туристична пам'ятка. Щоб встигнути відвідати кожне мальовниче місце, ми наполегливо рекомендуємо гостям готувати обідню їжу заздалегідь. 3. У разі сильного снігопаду в зимовий період, графік підйому в національний парк Маунт-Рейнір може бути припинений. Натомість ми насолоджуватимемося захоплюючими краєвидами біля підніжжя гори.

Seattle

Mount Rainier stands as an icon in the Washington landscape. Mount Rainier, also known as Tacoma, is the highest mountain of the Cascade Range of the Pacific Northwest, and the highest mountain in the state of Washington. Mount Rainier is an active volcano and has the most glaciated peak in the United States. It spawns five major rivers, and the top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round. When snow melts, water flows down in a large volume, and gives Rainier National Park the best waterfalls, vast lakes, and the lush green forests.
