How does a sunset hike to Washington's official state waterfall sound? Crafted by repeated glacial floods that swept through eastern Washington in the last ice age, Palouse Falls rages on. This behemoth on the Palouse River is the last active waterfall on the Ice Age floods path.
Bring your paints and easel, your camera and your patience. Parking at this Washington State Park is limited, and you can expect long waits on weekends and holidays.
In addition to the 198-foot waterfall and surrounding basalt cliffs, the 94-acre park offers a small picnic area. There's also a first-come, first-served camping area. Camping is very limited here, with just 11 tent spaces, including one ADA-compliant campsite.
