Snoqualmie Falls
Free parking is available. Set your navigation to “Snoqualmie Lower Falls.” From there, it’s about a 10–15 minute walk covering the upper, middle, and lower viewpoints. This is one of the most iconic waterfalls near Seattle. In spring, the water volume is especially strong, making the falls very spectacular, with mist rising everywhere. The trail is short and easy, and you can also walk down to the base of the waterfall.
I was completely struck by how beautiful Snoqualmie Falls is. This natural wonder is only about a 40-minute drive from downtown Seattle, and it’s absolutely worth multiple visits.
