Day Hike - Middle Fork Snoqualmie River

Meet at the Si View Community Center/Si View Park at 8:45am:

400 SE Orchard Dr, North Bend, WA 98045

Directions to Si View Community Center: From I-90 East, take Exit 31 toward North Bend/WA-202 W.  At the traffic circle, take the 3rd exit onto WA-202 W/Bendigo Blvd S.  After 0.6 miles, turn right onto W Park St for 0.1 miles, then turn right onto Healy Ave S.  Drive another 0.2 miles.  The community center will be around the bend on your left.

From there, we can consolidate cars and caravan to the Middle Fork Trailhead, about a 30-minute drive from the community center.  Drivers will need to display a NW Forest Pass at the trailhead.

There are restrooms at the community center & park and pit toilets at the Middle Fork Trailhead and Dingford Creek Trailhead (our turnaround point).

*There will be an optional post-hike meal at the North Bend Bar & Grill (145 E North Bend Way, North Bend), just a 3-minute drive from Si View Park.

At a pace of 2.5 mph, this hike could take about 6 hours, factoring in a 30-minute lunch break and rest stops along the way.  Expect to be back at the ranger station at 4:30pm or possibly later.

This is a beautiful hike through the forest with glimpses of the Middle Fork Snoqualmie River throughout.   There are multiple creek crossings along the trail and it's likely we'll encounter some muddy sections & standing water on the trail.  Trekking poles, gaiters, and sturdy waterproof boots highly recommended!
