The guide is very informative! She even made extra stops when we saw a herd of elk and great photo ops. It was a beautiful trip!
This tour is unique in that you hike (moderate level with a few 8 minutes inclines) in old-growth forest along Snoqualmie River for a couple of hours to view a gorgeous cascade of falls, Twin Falls. The trail is 3 miles in total. Then followed by viewing another beautiful fall that we drive to - the famous 270-foot tall Snoqualmie Falls. You also see a beautiful lake with views of the surrounding mountains often reflected in the lake. There is lots of diversity on this half day tour from Seattle.
Departure Point
- We will meet outside Sephora next to the big arch on 415 Pine St. I will be wearing a pink flower fleece pullover, so it should be easy to spot me.

Our guide, John was wonderful! During the drive there and back, he pointed out places of interest and gave us some history of the area. Same during the actual hikes. He was patient with the slower members of the group.
The trails were beautiful and challenging. One had to watch where you put your feet; lots of rocks and tree roots to navigate. Hiking shoes are a must. There is some long elevation to climb. Definitely not a hike for those out of shape (and the excursion description does warn of this.) Loved the old growth forests we hired through.

I had a wonderful time on this tour through Twin Falls and the Snoqualmie Falls with Matt as the guide. He was a wonderful guide with so much compassion and a great attitude. I was struggling a bit and he made sure I was comfortable and encouraged to continue the entire time. I highly recommend!
