Overheard from another hiker arriving to Rattlesnake Ledge “This is the easiest hike for a view this good in the area.”
Starting from immensely popular Rattlesnake Lake, the trail weaves up through the forest to Rattlesnake Ledge in just over a thousand vertical feet.
One big switch back to the right then the trail follows the ridge southward before climbing more steeply near the ledge.
Continue on to Snoqualmie Point for an extended hi-line journey, or soak in the views from Rattle Snake Ledge.
The striking ledge visible from the parking lot is a wonderful scenic overlook and with views of Mount Si, Tenerife, Mailbox Peak, and Mount Washington is a good trail to get familiar with the Mountains to Sound greenbelt.
