Where to Meet and Parking Information

Turn left (north) onto 468th Street and follow it to the junction with the Middle Fork Snoqualmie Road (Forest Road 56). Turn right and continue up the Middle Fork Snoqualmie Road for 11.8 miles to the Middle Fork trailhead parking area on the right. Look for Greenway signs and staff.
Additional Information

Located along the Middle Fork of the Snoqualmie River, the Middle Fork campground is a great spot to stay for easy access to all the beauty Middle Fork has to offer. Nested within the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest, the campground provides a place to camp while exploring some of the 1,500 miles of trail throughout the area, for viewing amazing vistas of Mt. Baker on clear days, or for a chance to spot wildlife in the area such as mountain goats, coyotes, pine marten and a variety of migratory birds and native fish. This campground is frequently visited, and volunteers work to maintain the popular picnic areas and campsites.
