Mountains · Snoqualmie Pass
Franklin Falls
A short summer trail follows the South Fork Snoqualmie River to a powerful waterfall. Winter travel substantially changes access and introduces serious avalanche exposure.
Plan your trip
About 44 miles in a straight line from downtown Seattle. The road distance will be longer.
Getting there: Drive
Winter: Denny Creek Road and parking are not plowed or open to motor vehicles; the route from Asahel Curtis Sno-Park is roughly 7 miles round trip. The waterfall basin lies below an avalanche chute with considerable avalanche danger; avoid entering it and check avalanche conditions.
