Overview

Mount St. Helens is one of the five active Cascade volcanoes of Washington state and the most active. Mount St. Helens is famous for its 1980 eruption losing roughly 1,300 feet of elevation in one of the most memorable United States volcanic eruptions. Visitors come to see the blast zone and regrowth of the surrounding national forest.

In 1982, Congress passed the protection of the 11,000 acres around the volcano forming the Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument. Since the eruption, the ecosystem has been left to naturally revive itself. Best seen from the north, visitors can view the Mount St. Helens volcanic crater, lava domes and other landscape changes. Learn more about the eruption here.

Getting Started

Mount St. Helens can be accessed from various directions. For more information, go here.

Visitor and Interpretive Centers

Located at the end of State Route WA-504, Johnston Ridge Observatory provides a unique view of the blast zone. The observatory hosts interpretive displays illustrating the biological and geological impact from the event. In addition to the observatory, various learning and interpretive centers, like the Forest Learning Center, are scattered throughout the monument where you can learn more about the eruption and ecosystem.

Recreation

Camp, hike, backpack, run, or mountain bike the many trails within the National Monument. Hummocks Trail from the west provides a relatively short loop hike good for families. Starting from the east, Loowit Trail circumnavigates Mount St. Helens. Allow three days to hike the 28-mile trail. Also on the east side, Norway Pass to Mount Margaret is a long backpacking trip that provides beautiful views of the volcano. The trail also provides views of other Cascade volcanoes in the area.

Discovered in the late 1940's, Ape Caves were formed by a basaltic eruption over 2,000 years ago, which is rare for the Cascade Mountain Range and more commonly seen with Hawaiian volcanic eruptions. As the lava flowed and cooled, the surface hardened but molten lava beneath continued to flow, causing thermal erosion to the pre-existing rocks and soil. It's North America's third longest lava tube at 13,042 feet long. Today, visitors explore the lava caves by climbing down stairs and ladders to enter and walk within the lava tube. Ice Cave Picnic Area near Mount Adams is another popular geological gem.

Fishing and non-motorized boating allow visitors to enjoy the water around the volcano, like the Coldwater Lake Picnic and Boating site.

Climbing

Every year, thousands of climbers make their way to Mount St. Helens' crater rim and summit. Climb to the summit taking the Monitor Ridge Route in the summer after the snow has melted at the Climbers’ Bivouac trailhead. Mountaineers and skiers attempt winter and early spring summits on the Worm Flows Route, where climbers ascend to the summit starting at the Marble Mountain Sno-Park.

When to Go

The best time to visit is in the summer months for the views and access to hiking trails not covered by snow.

Permits

Mount St. Helens is located within the Gifford Pinchot National Forest, the management of permits varies depending on wilderness areas. Johnston Ridge and Coldwater sites require an entrance fee per person. A Northwest Forest Pass or Interagency Annual pass will grant entry for one person. The Forest Learning Center is free.

Backcountry permits are required year-round for hiking and camping.

Mount St. Helens Institute manages the permit system for required climbing permits above 4,800 feet, which are limited to protect the fragile ecosystem. Learn more here.

From December 1 through March 31, Sno-Park passes are required at trailheads, but the recreational passes aren't needed. Learn more here.

Dog Info

To protect the revival of the vegetation and wildlife, pets are not permitted within the recreational area sites and trails except where stated. However, the surrounding Gifford Pinchot National Forest welcomes dogs on leash. Check out this page for more information.

    Climbers Bivouac Trailhead to Mount St. Helens, Skamania County, WA, USA
    Very steep ascent. Almost more difficult on the way down. On a clear day there are panoramic views the entire way. The St. Helens crater is plenty impressive on its own, a testament to the raw power of Mother Nature. We could also see Sprit Lake and Mt. Rainier to the north, Mt. Adam’s to the East, Mt. Hood and Mt. Bachelor to the South, and very tiny in the distance we’re the three sisters. Certainly one of the most difficult and rewarding climbs I’ve ever done.

    A unique area still recovering from the eruption 41 years ago. Spectacular views of ash and mud flows in the valley, the still smoking crater (when the clouds allow), and Spirit Lake, filled with the thousands of trees knocked down by the blast.

    Windy Ridge Viewpoint via Truman Trail and Loowit Trail
    Some wildflowers left on the Truman. Bugs left me alone entirely. Zero shade, but extremely enjoyable hike. Trail narrows a bit at a few points, if you’re pole-reliant. Only 2 very brief sections with mildly sketchy footholds, but I’d definitely not rate this as “difficult.”

    Johnston Ridge
    Great hike from the Johnston Ridge Observatory to the top of Harry’s Ridge in sunny 60ish degree weather. Still a little early in the season so there were multiple patches of slushy melting snow including one long (maybe 1/4 mile) stretch through a meadow. Micro spikes were not needed, but would have been nice for the meadow and final approach to Harry’s Ridge. Epic views throughout the hike and hiking up the ridge was breathtaking! Great view of Spirit Lake, Mt Adams and Mt Hood in the distance! And of course, Helens!

    June Lake Loop via Loowit Trail
    I started 9/25/20 at windy ridge. From there went ccw, camped on the south fork of the river just past the restricted zone. 8am to 3pm about 12.5 miles. Wind and rain force me to make camp. Best section of the trail IMO lots of animals, the breach was amazing! Day two I broke camp around 8am and pushed all the way back to windy ridge 20 miles or so. Hit the car around 4:30pm. One thing I was not expect was all of the ravines! Probably crossed 20+! and due to the heavy rains the water crossing were interesting. I packed way too heavy anticipating taking three days to complete. I think with better weather and a lighter pack it would be doable in one day for an average hiker. Be smart about water, even with heavy rains there wasn’t much to be found. I didn’t see any water fit to drink even with a life straw from the breach to chocolate falls. Back side of the mountain was better as far as water goes. Overall an amazing hike!

    Monitor Ridge Climb (10/25/19, 7:02:59AM)
    Yesterday my buddy, Mark and I made our first attempt at climbing Mt. St. Helens. The morning started off beautiful, but gradually worsened. By the time we were within 1 mile of the summit with about 1500 ft of elevation to tackle, the weather took a significant dive. Visibility decreased considerably and the blow-down wind gusts made it difficult to stand. As we hunkered down for a bit with a few fellow climbers, we decided it wasn’t worth the risk, plus what was the point of getting to the top with no view. We sat for a moment before heading back down. This was our first attempt. It was one hell of a fun adventure and scouting expedition. It was also a challenging one. We met so many nice people along the way. We were all was sharing this beautiful experience together. Until next time, Helens.

    Mount Saint Helens via Monitor Ridge
    Climbers bivouac trailhead. Phenomenal day and hike. Perfect weather at the right temperature for a fall hike. The trail is easy to follow in the trees. Once you come out and it opens up you follow the wooden posts and select your line to scramble up through the rocks/boulders. When you move beyond the boulder field it is up the open to the top. Once you get to the false summit (where the majority hung out today) you need to traverse the ridge line to get to the true summit. There is minimal snow on the trail that will interfere with the climb until you want to get to the true summit, crampons and poles or an ice axe would be helpful. Go now! Free permits and great weather/conditions. Or don’t because there was a ton of people today.

    Nice fall day, with the maples starting to change. The clear day added to the beauty of the phenomenal hike. Must do to get a different perspective of the mountain.

    Monitor Ridge Climbing Route and Ptarmigan Trail
    I hesitate to give any climb of a Cascade Volcano a less than 5 star rating because they are all unique and spectacular. For this climb, however, I have to go 4 stars not because the the first 1.8 miles are amazingly beautiful and well maintained or because the route is the best marked route of any climb I have done but because of the number of boulder fields. The boulder fields follow the route above tree line but there are multiple trail variations, no consistent path through the boulder fields and there was of course no snow. We were not expecting snow on the route in August but it was the only time we could climb and get a permit (which proved difficult to obtain). If one could do this climb in the early season when the boulder fields would be covered in snow then this would be an easy 5 stars. Without the snow, I think Mt. Adams is a better non-technical mountain in the late summer even though it has more elevation gain. Being able to glissade from the false summit (assuming safety in the glissade chute never takes a holiday) and then walk efficiently down the Crescent Glacier saves more time than the energy expended with the extra altitude and allows you to descend the extra altitude quickly.

    Ape Caves
    I’ve hiked the Ape Caves 3 times now and always enjoy it. It’s not a long hike but can be challenging at times when down in the lava tubes. Would highly recommend having a head lamp so your hands are free.

    Loved this hike! The clouds lifted just enough that we were able to see the top of the mountain for a split second, and there were lovely views down the Ape Canyon. Wildflowers were present though not in huge quantities. The forest was quiet and peaceful.

    Mount Saint Helens Worm Flows Route
    This mountain is an icon. The view from the rim into the crater is other worldly and coupled with the panoramic view of several other cascade volcanoes the payoff is worth the work. If you have the gear for snow travel I’d suggest this route early in the season to avoid the dust on the monitor ridge route. Permits required after April first and they go fast.

    Trail climbs slowly to achieve a spectacular view from a promontory where we had lunch. We didn't ski down, but we saw half a dozen skiers and riders enjoying the sugary powder.

    Always a great, challenging hike. Nothing technical when done in summer/early fall. Make sure to bring plenty of water as there are no water sources. If it is going to be a hot day try to start as early as possible. Once the sun rises the upper stretches can be brutal in the heat. https://www.gaiagps.com/datasummary/track/e6abf134327279e1b6fb81610d04c1d3/?layer=caltoporelief,stamenterrainhd,OpenLandscapeMapHD
