Twin Falls in Washington offers a captivating experience with its beautiful hike and waterfall views. The trail can be muddy, particularly after rain, so it's wise to wear sturdy boots. Though there are some downed trees and a steady incline, the lower viewpoint and the falls bridge provide rewarding sights. While the upper falls viewpoint is often skipped, the journey to the lower falls, including the bridge, is approximately 2.6 miles round trip and is well worth the effort.
