The Grand Canyon of the Elwha is a deep canyon on the Elwha River located below Dodger Point approximately {{convert|5|miles}} upstream from the now-drained Lake Mills in Washington, United States. It can be reached approximately {{convert|3.5|miles}} from the Whiskey Bend trailhead via the Geyser Valley trail. It is also about {{convert|1/2|mile}} from Humes Ranch Cabin and {{convert|1.4|miles}} from Goblins Gate.

The Elwha River is traversed by the Dodger Point Bridge, as it exits the canyon and just above Humes Ranch Cabin.
