Naches Peak is a 6,452-foot (1,967 m) mountain summit located on the shared border of Mount Rainier National Park and William O. Douglas Wilderness.

Naches Peak is situated on the crest of the Cascade Range and immediately southeast of Chinook Pass.

[1] The name Naches Peak was proposed by the Yakima Chamber of Commerce and approved by Asahel Curtis in 1927.

Naches Peak is located in the marine west coast climate zone of western North America.

As a result, the west side of the Cascades experiences high precipitation, especially during the winter months in the form of snowfall.
