Snoqualmie Falls to Pass

Riding from the falls up to the pass, around 600m/2000ft of climbing, mostly along gravel trails. This follows the Snoqualmie Valley Trail, and then Palouse to Cascades state park through Iron Horse.

This route passes through the Snoqualmie pass tunnel, which is only open May-Oct or so, so bring a light for your bike.

 

Conventional water and food sources are scarce on this ride, between Rattlesnake lake, and the pass itself, there are only streams and the occasional blackberries during the right months.

The start of this ride features pavement, but the rest of the ride is firm gravel. Mountain bikes are not required for this route, but make sure your bike can handle gravel and the occasional muddy puddle well.

The elevation graph shows this route going over the mountain, the tunnel is flat and this ride does not go over the 850m or so in elevation. This mapping tool cannot handle tunnels well.
