Snoqualmie Valley
Explore
East of Seattle's Eastside, the Snoqualmie Valley has long been a quiet backwater of
dairy farms, orchards and produce gardens. Although suburbs are starting to take over
the valley, there's still plenty of rural, small-town ambience to make for a very pleasant

by incongruously high snow-topped mountains are reason enough to visit.
