Griff Washburn’s camper truck isn’t just a vehicle—it’s a basecamp for adventure and studio for his solo indie rock project: Goth Babe. “Having a micro studio I can take anywhere has definitely changed the game for writing music,” Washburn says. The singer-songwriter whips together quick proof that his off-grid lifestyle has an inspiring power as he goes from surf to acoustic jam session on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula.

Watch how Washburn experiences music and creativity in Olympic National Park, and then start planning your own RV-inspired retreat somewhere beautiful.

Olympic Peninsula Beach and Trail Loop

Distance: 510 miles

Recommended Time: 4–5 days

Start your road trip in Seattle and head north along the Puget Sound. Continue west to Port Angeles, the gateway to Olympic National Park, before wandering inland to the glacial waters of Lake Crescent. Allow time to hike the Hoh River Trail and to catch a sunset at Ruby Beach. Along the way, there are plenty of scenic, RV-friendly campgrounds to choose from, including Fairholme Campground, Hoh Rain Forest Campground, Kalaloch Campground, and more. The route then winds to the High Steel Bridge, one of the tallest railroad bridges in the U.S. Take a final hike or walk along the beach before looping back to Seattle.
