Fortunately, we have plenty of them! In fact, there are around 2,000-3,000 waterfalls in Washington. Now obviously, a good portion of these will require a hefty hike to reach — but not the picture-perfect Snoqualmie Falls, one of our state’s most spectacular natural wonders. Best yet, reaching the Snoqualmie viewing area requires no real effort at all and is accessible for nearly everyone.
