If you visit the Northwest & don’t get the opportunity to experience the natural beauty of the the local mountain ranges, you really haven’t experienced the Northwest. Allow TST to show you the world famous Snoqualmie Falls!
The 45 minute drive east of downtown Seattle takes you over the floating bridges of Lake Washington to the foothills of the Cascade Mountain Range to the towns of Snoqualmie, Twin Falls & North Bend (the filming location of the cult classic David Lynch Series Twin Peaks.)
First stop is at the Lower Falls Viewpoint. See the penstocks that feed the hydroelectric power plant en route to the viewpoint area for amazing photo opportunities. After a brief walk along the elevated catwalk above the Snoqualmie River, guests will get their first glimpse of the magnificent 268 foot waterfall whose raging waters have powered the Northwest with clean hydroelectric energy since 1899.
After experiencing the lower falls viewpoint, guests can take the 0.6 mile hike (optional for those with physical impairments) up to the Upper Falls Viewing area where your guide will meet you with bottled water & escort you to the upper observation deck. Following pictures atop the Falls your group will be escorted to their table reservation at the Salish Lodge dining room for a gourmet two-course meal including a beverage of their choice.
Prior to returning to Seattle guests can browse the lodge’s gift shop, see the filming locations of the cult series Twin Peaks, stop off a local casino or state park, grab an ice cream in the town of Snoqualmie, drive past the open air railway museum & more!
