Pebble Creek is a short, easy out-and-back hike in Mount Rainier National Park in Washington, managed by the National Park Service. The trail is about a mile long, with a total elevation gain of 542 feet, and it starts at roughly 6,964 feet, rising to a high point of 7,168 feet before returning to the starting level. The climb is gentle, and the route makes a good addition to a day spent exploring the park's high-country trails.
