Olympic Peninsula loop with a travel trailer or RV
Olympic Peninsula loop runs 260 miles from Olympia to Port Townsend. With an RV, you're looking at 7 h 10 min behind the wheel. Our map shows it sealed the whole way.
We planned it on Motocamp's own router for an RV and for a truck and travel trailer, at the sizes in the table below, so every number here comes from a real plan, not a guess.
The stops: Olympia · Aberdeen · Forks · Port Angeles · Port Townsend
Is Olympic Peninsula loop OK for an RV?
Yes, on our plan. It gets through for an RV without using a road signed too low, too short or closed to trailers. Here's what to keep an eye on.
- It keeps you off 1 nearby road with a signed limit your rig wouldn't clear, like 21st Street (10 ft high).

Tell Motocamp what you drive, from an enduro bike to a 40-foot RV, and it plans this trip for that vehicle: the roads it fits, the low bridges and closed roads to steer clear of, and places to stay on the way. The maps keep working where there's no signal.
