The Kestner Homestead sits on the north shore of the Quinault River in the middle of a rugged wilderness. Built around the turn of the 20th century, this historic site is a testimony to the perseverance and dedication of Anton Kestner–one of the valley’s early pioneers.
The homestead can be accessed two ways. You can park at the homestead gate and walk a short distance to the buildings or take the scenic trail from the Quinault Rain Forest Ranger Station.
Nearby, the half-mile Maple Glade Rain Forest Trail meanders through the enchanting rain forest for a magical experience.
