CLASS II+ 1 miles
The Snoqualmie Falls to Plum's Landing section of Snoqualmie River in King County is 1 miles long and it is classified as a class II+ section by American Whitewater. If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside this state you might find the rivers here a bit more challenging, so better not forget that the rivers in this state are less manageable. When you're paddling down a Northern Cascade Range river like this one you always get great scenery along the way too. Lodging is available near the river, but do book a room before you come because it is a
very popular destination. There are campgrounds quite near the river where you can camp. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, this is an area with plenty of rivers for that. This river system is full of great paddling stretches, the Snoqualmie
Falls to Plum's Landing stretch is just one of them. This is a very short section so you'll have to walk back to the start over and over. Getting a good workout and spending some quality time in nature will make you glad you came. The wonderful Washington scenery and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water beats anything.
