Franklin Falls is hidden in plain sight just two miles SW of Snoqualmie Pass between the elevated roadway of I-90 and the old Denny Creek Wagon Trail. A gentle, family-friendly trail follows S. Fork Snoqualmie River north past its confluence with Denny Creek to the viewing area. This short hike is highlighted by old-growth cedar, mature hemlock and dark swirling pools along the creek.
