Hiking & Sightseeing

A hiker's paradise, Wallace Falls offers 12 miles of glorious foot trails. Let your feet (or snowshoes) take you up the Wallace River to powerful Wallace Falls, with its three tiers of water rushing over rock and timber. Along the way, climb the trail to the lower, middle and upper viewpoints, and watch the waterfall tumble into the clear pools below. Up for a longer hike? Either head down an old logging road, or follow the Greg Ball Trail over several miles and junctures to Wallace and Jay lakes.

Bridal Veil Falls is a beautiful waterfall that roars down a 100-foot rock face, sliding off of granite slabs and tumbling onto the rocks and Bridal Veil Creek down below. The majority of elevation gain is on the Bridal Veil trail turnoff about 1/2 mile from the top. Here, you will also climb flights of stairs to get to the top. There is a lot of skree around this point of the hike, but you are rewarded with a stunning view in both directions once you’re there. Bring layers, as there are temperature changes as you increase in elevation and you may get wet! This is a very popular spot, so parking can be tough, especially on the weekends. There is a parking lot for 50+ vehicles off of Mount Index Road, but it is pull-in only. Be sure to have a Northwest Forest Pass or America the beautiful pass, or pre-purchase a day pass as there is no fee pay box in the parking area.
