Discover Alpine Lakes Wilderness RV rentals for memorable road trips
Alpine Lakes Wilderness, in Washington, was originally established as “Alpine Lakes Limited Area” in 1946, but because this classification didn’t protect it from mining operations and commercial endeavors, nature lovers lobbied for several years to increase the protections. In 1976, President Ford agreed and signed an act to reclassify it as a wilderness, “Alpine Lakes Wilderness.” He was heard saying about Alpine Lakes, “anywhere so beautiful should be preserved.” This pristine slice of wilderness is the home of several endangered and threatened animals, including the golden eagle, goshawk, spotted owl, and lynx.

The Great Outdoors
Encompassing over 400,000 acres of wilderness, Alpine Lakes Wilderness is one of the most rugged and challenging regions in Washington state to explore. The terrain is steep and wild, with very few access roads to ease travel into the heart of the mountains (the access roads, if any, are limited to park officials and rangers). There are around 600 miles of trails, many of which traverse through boulder-strewn mountainsides, around crystal alpine lakes, and up to summits of mountains. A portion of the 2,600-mile-long Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) also passes through Alpine Lakes Wilderness; it’s strongly recommended that PCT thru-hikers time their journey to avoid winter travel because the region frequently sees several feet of snow, rendering the trail all but impossible to navigate.
Camping in Alpine Lakes Wilderness
A common reason to rent an RV is to gain more immediate access to nature. In the morning, step out of the front door with a steaming cup of coffee and bask in the wilderness. Listen to birdsong in the trees. Watch as deer cautiously sip from a babbling stream.
Exploring the Area
Though the Washington state wilderness is a major draw for many travelers and adventurers, the charming mountain towns are not to be ignored. They feature restaurants dishing up delicious, mouthwatering meals, historical museums, and landmark markers that detail the area’s history. Hit the road in an Airstream rental. One of the more unique attractions is the Telephone Museum in Cle Elum, WA. The museum houses one of the last still-functional telephone switchboards that was used until 1966 (most towns had retired their switchboards in the 1950s). Also on site are several telephones and communication devices that were in use between the 1890s and 1970s.

The Van was just perfect for my solo trip! Park ready & the great part was the ability to be off grid & still have a shower & toilet available! Having the star link was helpful to still stay connected in spotty areas. Great communication from the hosts!! I will gladly rent again when I come back to Seattle.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience renting this RV! The vehicle was practically brand new — very clean, comfortable, and in excellent condition. Everything worked perfectly, and it was clear that the owner takes great care of the RV.
