Right after the falls, SR 202 passes by the storage area for a large number of old railroad cars and locomotives, part of the interesting Snoqualmie Valley Railroad Museum's collection. Just south of the old town you could turn east for a short distance to Remlinger Farms, something of a landmark that offers a big farm market, cafes, 'U-pick' produce and flowers (depending on the season) and various distractions.Ĭontinuing south, the road travels through scenic rural country to Fall City, where SR 203 merges with SR 202 and climbs up the hill to the falls and the Salish Lodge.
You'd rejoin SR 203 near the town of Carnation.
Shortly after the pleasant town of Duvall, you'd cross to the west side of the valley to visit the (original) Carnation Farm, which is very pretty and which offers a farm stand and various food options. This starts by heading north from Seattle around the top of Lake Washington to the old town of Monroe on US 2, then south along WA SR 203 through the beautiful Snoqualmie Valley. If I may let me recommend an alternative route for your day. Your attention is best directed to the other vehicles - lots of them. It's not especially scenic - not terrible but nothing to write home about.
SR 18 from I-90 to Tacoma is a very busy, mostly 4-lane highway that carries a great deal of truck traffic.
