About

Cougar Rock Campground, on the southwest side of Mt. Rainier National Park, is conveniently located near Paradise. The main attraction at Mount Rainier National Park is the mountain itself, a massive glacier-clad volcano, peaking at 14,411 ft. and dominating the skyline for hundreds of miles. Visitors travel through majestic old-growth forests, past tumbling waterfalls and historic buildings to reach sub-alpine meadows, where world-famous wildflower displays bloom through July and August. Popular activities in the park include sight-seeing, hiking, rock climbing and camping. The campground is located at an elevation of 3,180 feet, with summers being dry and cool with daytime temperatures ranging from 60 to 80 degrees.
