About Rainbow Falls State Park

The Chehalis River runs through this recreation area, which sits just off State Route 6 about a mile east of Dryad, Washington. The park was set aside for public use in 1935, giving visitors river access along that stretch of the Chehalis. Its location places it within a mile of the small community of Dryad rather than directly on a main travel route.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
