At 354 ft, Spray Falls is one of the taller waterfalls in Washington — a fan waterfall worth seeking out.

The falls are fed by Spray Creek. You'll find it in Pierce, Washington. It is protected within National Park Service (Mount Rainier National Park).

This is a moderate hike waterfall: a longer day hike, roughly one to several miles each way. The walk to the main viewpoint runs about 4 miles round trip. Base a visit out of Wilkeson, the closest town.

When to go: Mid-summer through early fall. Like most waterfalls, Spray Falls runs highest after snowmelt or heavy rain and can thin out in late summer, so it's worth checking recent streamflow and the land manager's conditions page before a long drive.
