The natural wonders of Washington State are many and also incredibly impressive. In fact, some of our landmarks are so iconic, they're nationally (and in some cases, internationally) recognized.

If you're guilty of living in The Evergreen State for most or all of your life without seeing some of the most majestic natural wonders of Washington, you're not alone. But if you can, you should really try to see these seven in your lifetime, as they are especially incredible.

1. Mt. Rainier

It's hard to imagine the Evergreen State without Mt. Rainier. It's even harder to imagine that this icon is one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world because of its likelihood to erupt. But until that happens, we'll enjoy every gorgeous photo. Mt. Rainier truly does sit atop the list of Washington State natural wonders.

2. Diablo Lake

Diablo Lake is located in the North Cascades. There are almost 8,000 lakes in Washington, but this one stands out due to its turquoise hue, which is attributed to the surrounding glaciers that grind rocks into a fine powder that is carried into the lake through creeks. Read more to see why Diablo Lake is one of the most stunning natural wonders of Washington State.

3. Dry Falls

You don't have to be obsessed with geology to appreciate Dry Falls, although it doesn't hurt. It is estimated that these falls were five times the width of Niagara Falls. Had it not gone dry, it would be the largest waterfall in the country. Start planning your trip by learning more about Dry Falls.

4. La Push

Olympic National Park is full of incredible natural wonders. But if you only have time to see one spot when you're there, make it the otherworldly La Push. It truly is one of the great wonders of Washington.

5. Hoh Rainforest

Washington happens to be home to the only temperate rainforest in North America. That fact alone is reason enough to visit the Hoh, but the fact that it is utterly breathtaking (and in many spots, completely quiet) doesn't hurt. Learn more about why this magical rain forest is one of the best Washington State natural wonders.

6. Mt. St Helens

If you're old enough to remember when this volcano erupted in 1980, you know how much it affected everyone in the Pacific Northwest. That's highly unlikely to happen again in our lifetime, so head to Mt. St. Helens and check out this piece of living history. It's fascinating to learn more about this volcano in Washington State.

7. Columbia River Gorge

Technically, we share this national scenic area with Oregon. Still, there are some views on the Washington side that simply can't be beat. Read more about this natural wonder in Washington State, and then plan your next visit.
