Park history In 1950, Washington State Parks purchased the 160-acre parcel that includes Twin Falls from Puget Sound Power and Light and named the park Twin Falls State Park. The park expanded in 1976, and in 1977, the name was changed to Olallie, the Chinook Jargon word for “salmonberry,” because of the abundance of salmonberries in the area. The Old Snoqualmie Wagon Road, completed in 1867 to offer wagon passage between Ellensburg and Seattle, passes through what is now the picnic area. In 1905, the first automobile drove over Snoqualmie Pass, and the old wagon road was gradually replaced by the Sunset Highway.

Olallie State Park is a forested day-use park on the South Fork of the Snoqualmie

River east of Seattle. The park offers 6 miles of moderate hiking trails, excellent fishing, rock climbing, whitewater kayaking, and access to the long distance, mixed-use Iron Horse State Park Trail.

Olallie is known for its beautiful scenery and glorious waterfalls. A short hike takes visitors past old-growth trees on the way to the dramatic Twin Falls, a waterfall that cuts through a narrow rock canyon before plunging over a final 135-foot drop. The swimming hole at the South Fork Picnic Area is a popular on hot summer days, and the 77-foot tall Weeks Falls is only short 0.5-mile hike upstream. Seattle’s most easily accessible rock climbing areas are located at Olallie’s Deception Crags and Far Side Crags. Three tall trestles on the Iron Horse State Park Trail, a gravel hiking, biking and equestrian trail, are easily accessed from Olallie’s Homestead Valley Trailhead. The Snoqualmie River has abundant fishing opportunities and spectacular fall colors. Located on the western slopes of the Cascade Mountains, this 2,336-acre park is not far from I-90, about a 10-minute drive time from the community of North Bend.
