The PACIFIC NORTHWEST is full of natural wonders. Whether it’s hiking trails, mountains, or swimming holes, there’s something to discover at every turn. Waterfalls are a special rendezvous for summer travelers, and we’re lucky to have several to choose from here in the Pacific Northwest. We’ve assembled a few of our favorites that you and your traveling companions won’t want to miss this summer, plus a few tips on how to prepare to make the most out of your day trip.

Snoqualmie Falls

Head out to Snoqualmie to see what millions of visitors feast their eyes on every year: Snoqualmie Falls. The 270-foot giant cascades endlessly as you walk around the two-acre park, gazing in awe at its natural beauty. The park’s observation deck offers an optimal viewing experience, while the Salish Lodge and Spa provides four-star accommodations encompassing dining, spa treatments, and more. As seen in the opening credits of the TV show Twin Peaks, this waterfall has built a name for itself over the years, pleasing park visitors for decades. A Discover Pass is required to take part in the Snoqualmie Falls hike.

Franklin Falls

Grab your Northwest Forest Pass, pack the family vehicle up, and drive out to Franklin Falls, a spectacular waterfall shown off by a lovely little two-mile trail just off of I-90. Over the last decade, the Washington Trail Association has made several improvements to the trail, making it an enjoyable and easy trip for hikers of all levels. Gaze out at the 70-foot waterfall as it barrels toward the earth and breathe in the fresh Pacific Northwest air.

Bridal Veil Falls

For the more experienced hikers, Bridal Veil Falls is a must-see summer destination. A 1,000-foot climb puts you right near the 100-foot rock face as the overflow from Lake Serene streams down and fills the air with refreshing mist. There’s even a staircase that runs parallel to the falls, putting you face-to-face with the power of the waterfall. Word of mouth has turned this once-secret getaway into a popular hiking destination, so it’s wise to get an early start.

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO

F Does the waterfall include a hike?

F Do you need a Discover Pass?

F Double check the weather before you go

F Pack a snack and extra water

F Dress appropriately

F Bring an extra change of clothes

F Save a copy of the directions as data connection can be unreliable

Wallace Falls

For knowledgeable Pacific Northwest hikers, all roads eventually lead to Wallace Falls State Park. At nearly 1,400 acres, the park offers camping with shoreline on multiple lakes as well as the Wallace River. The crown jewel of the park, however, is Wallace Falls. With three lookout tiers, you’ll watch water rushing 265 feet over rock and timber into pristine pools below. The park is also the perfect summer getaway with first-come first-served tent sites and private cabin lodging.

Keekwulee Falls

The Chinook word “Keekwulee” means “to fall down,” a fitting description of the 90-foot beauty found along Denny Creek in Snoqualmie. This stunning display of nature emerges from surrounding old-growth forest that gives the area its signature natural wonder. Elsewhere in Denny Creek, you’ll find a natural water slide that has been a popular destination for locals for years. Satisfy your inner explorer by pressing on through all six miles of park trails and discover unique wildlife along the way.

BUCKET LIST

When the sun’s out in the Pacific Northwest, the outdoor activities pile up quickly. To make the most of the sunny weather, you need the scoop on all the local events. Consider adding these memorable outings to your summer bucket list. More information about some of these activities can be found in the Local Happenings section that follows.

F Whale Watching on San Juan Island

Of all the natural beauty found throughout the San Juan Islands, the presence of whales may be its most iconic. This is truly a global destination for seeing orcas in all their glory. You may also see humpbacks, gray whales, sea lions, and more marine life on your excursion. Make sure to book your trip in advance!

F Paddle Board at Juanita Beach in Kirkland

What is a summer in the Pacific Northwest without a good paddle board session? Juanita Beach Park in Kirkland is one of the area’s most sought-after paddle boarding sites. With scenic views and plenty of delicious treats nearby, this summer favorite belongs on your list this year. If you don’t have your own gear, the park has both individual and multi-person paddle boards and kayaks available to rent.

F Waterfall & Wine Tour

Snoqualmie Falls is the waterfall so nice we had to mention it twice! When paired with a wine tour, the experience gets even better. Visit the falls with a guided expert, then travel through Woodinville wine country to visit some of the top wineries in the region. A little nature and wine make for a memorable summer experience. Who could ask for more?

F Road Trip to Leavenworth

The home of all things Bavarian in the Pacific Northwest, Leavenworth has so much on the docket this summer. Catch a live production of “The Sound of Music” at the Ski Hill Amphitheater on select dates throughout July, August, and September. Head outside and backpack some of the region’s best trails or ride the rapids along the Wenatchee River!

8 LIFESTYLE NORTHWEST | SUMMER 2023

F Drive-In Movies in Oak Harbor or Bremerton

Looking for a good ol’ fashioned night out at the movies? Two of the region’s best drive-in movie theaters are playing can’t miss flicks all summer long: Bremerton’s Rodeo DriveIn and the Blue Fox in Oak Harbor. Check their websites for running times, pack up your ride with all your favorite comforts, and take in the magic of the movies!

F Watch the Sunset at Kerry Park

Nestled on a terrace in one of Seattle’s most scenic neighborhoods, Kerry Park offers the quintessential view of the Emerald City skyline and Elliott Bay. Bring a blanket and watch the sun set over the city alongside tourists, locals and photographers at one of Seattle’s most picturesque locations.

F Hike & Picnic at Rattlesnake Ledge

In just four miles, you’ll climb to over 2,000 feet at Rattlesnake Ledge, one of Washington State’s premier hiking destinations. Switchbacks will guide you as you traverse Rattlesnake’s sheer rock face to a junction where one of the most spectacular views in the Northwest awaits you.

F Tour Bainbridge Island

Ready for the perfect day on one of the Northwest’s favorite islands? Tour Bainbridge offers comprehensive touring experiences including trips to local wineries, eateries, and attractions. Book ahead of time and consult their tour experts on how to personalize your trip to make it one you won’t soon forget.

F Cider Tasting on Vashon Island

The folks at Dragon’s Head Cider like to keep their recipes simple. One sip of their expert brews will have you believing that less is more. The cidery offers tastings Friday through Sunday, noon to 5 pm. And if your tasting experience leaves you wanting more, pick up a bottle of their award-winning ciders before you make your trip home.

F Road Trip to Vancouver, BC

In all this talk of summer activities, we can’t forget about our neighbors to the north. Vancouver, British Columbia, has something for everyone this summer. Head to Stanley Park during the daytime for scenic views, landmarks, and delicious food vendors. At night, check out the Richmond Night Market. With over 250 food vendors from across the globe, fair games, and more, this local favorite is “a little slice of magic” you won’t want to miss.
