Entiat Falls is an 11-foot block waterfall on the Entiat River in Chelan County, Washington, within the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest.
The falls
A square ledge forms a broad plunge or a narrow funnel as flow changes. An in-person survey puts the total drop at 11 feet in a single step.
Getting there
The Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest's Entiat Ranger District lists the falls on Entiat River Road. Signed parking sits about 32.3 miles from US 97A, with the falls only about 20 feet from the turnout and no developed trail. The ranger district's page showed Stage 2 fire restrictions as of September 25, 2026, with no falls-specific closure.
