Snoqualmie Lower Falls

Very good point to look at the fall. Bette than the higher view point with less people. The energy construction is cool! And the whole trail is very flat, easy to walk, kids friendly.

A definite stop on your scenic drive. Parking is easy but only part of the short walk is wheelchair accessible. Great history of the power plant established and still running to this day. Most of the walk is easy and flat on a well made deck. The end of the walk is worth the crowd. A great view of the falls in a shaded observation area.

Lovely view of the falls. Went here on a foggy day where you couldn't see anything from the upper views. There was lots of parking, restrooms, and well maintained trail. People were respectful of each other's time and space for photos. I'd highly recommend going here if you're doing the upper falls.

Such an impressive sight to see this thundering 270 foot falls. You will want to bring your camera, good walking shoes, and maybe a bottle of water. Parking is free and the restrooms are clean. If you have mobility issues the path in places- is steep: partly gravel, stairs, and boardwalk. Along the way are gorgeous views and the awesome river. And the observation deck provides an excellent view of the falls.

Beautiful water falls with some nice educational signs along the way. The falls can be viewed from up top or down below. Since I was last here, there is a new lower parking lot that makes the lower view point much less strenuous and therefore more accessible. If you're in the area and enjoy seeing nature, you should visit!

Very beautiful waterfall. No hiking needed just a min or 2 or walk from parking lot. It has got really stunning views. You can even get down to river and watch the falls from half way down. The waterfalls is surrounded by lush greenery and is very vibrant.

This is a great place to visit. There are two view points of the cascade. One is up and closer to the cascade and the other one is at a lower point but a bit farther away (as you can see in the pictures).
Then the trail goes down to the water. At this place you can explore the area, you ca enter the water or even swim (like some were doing). I have seen people tubing and having fun with paddle boards.
If you are coming to this place get ready to get in the water, recommend it 😉.

No pay to entry and the is a free parking lot across from the hotel. There is a bridge to walk across the street to get to the cascade. 😉

Have never been to see the Lower Falls. It seems like every time we had been before, it was closed for some reason. The snow-melt and recent rains made for a torrent of water. Awesome! Easy parking, restrooms available, and the piping displays were very interesting. If you are into steampunk, you could take some cool pictures here.

Was an easy hike to the upper falls and the lower falls wasn’t too bad. Very beautiful

beautiful and informative. a great natural beauty and engineering marvel. 40.7 mega watts!

Love it very creative instantly generators to provide electricity to the city

Great place to visit and have a walk while learning about the hydroelectric plant and aee beautiful nature

I would recommend this place to view snoqualmie falls as compared to higher observation deck. The view from lower side of the falls is astounding

Very relaxing area. Short walk to viewing points and river side. Shoreline has some sandy areas to rest. Ample parking.

Personal opinion: lower deck views are nicer and more natural than upper deck. The walk is far more scenic, the crowds are less invasive / blocking of views. Overall a much more pleasant experience, and still friendly for those who aren’t keen on walking long distances.

This place is always great to visit. The top of the waterfall is nice and all but waiting along time for parking is no go. I suggest looking up the bottom of the water fall section better. Lots of "Free" parking, and you can access the water. You only sacrifice the access to gift shops, lol.

Loved it. I usually go a few times a year. I will watch the falls then take the 2 mile or so hike down to the bottom of the falls. Today we ran into a group of local Monks and 2 huge Wasp nest that were vacant.

It's a very peaceful spot. If you go to the river and turn right there are wonderful places to set up in the sand and enjoy some shallow water areas. If you go to the left you can follow the boardwalk to the bottom of the falls.

Great spot to see Snoqualmie Fall. Personally I like the lower fall view more.

If you have mobility issues, park at the upper falls and drive to the lower falls. The hike up the hill can be challenging, but if you are up for it, it’s a great, less than 2 mile hike round trip. Fantastic views and a great learning experience. River access if you’re feeling froggy. Bring sunscreen and plenty of water, especially if you bring dogs. I saw lots of poor little doggos that were overheated, dehydrated, and over tired.
