Go Strollers !!

[May in Seattle] Wallace Falls State Park

  • The Adventure
    Explore the spectacular 256 ft waterfalls(Lower, Middle and Upper falls) along the forest and riverside trail (round trip 3.6 miles to Lower Falls)
  • Distance and Travel Time (from downtown Seattle): 47.1 miles (1h 2m)
  • Type of Trip: Day Trip
  • Parking: Park in the parking lot at the trailhead
  • Admission
    There is a $10 fee to visit each state park (usually accepted in cash or check) but at $30 you can get the Discover Pass which is an annual pass for all WA state parks.
  • When to Go
    Any time of year (Nice park to enjoy in good weather.)
  • Things to Do
    Stroll along the forest trail, throw stones in the Wallace riverside, enjoy the forest and see the waterfall
  • Tips
    1) There are several places along the trail where you can reach the water to take a rest and let the kids throw rocks.
    2) Lower Falls and Picnic Shelter is a good turning point to make 3.6 mile round trip but there are more trails to extend the hikes to Middle Falls(4.2 mile round trip) and Upper Falls(5.5 mile round trip).
    3) Parking can be a challenge with lots of visitors during the weekend so either go early or else later in the afternoon.
