WASHINGTON'S "LESSER KNOWN"
TOP DESTINATIONS

North Cascades Scenic Highway

A two-lane highway that winds its way through the North Cascades National Park and into the Okanagon National Forest. Travel past waterfalls, river valleys, and snowcapped pinnacles. Take SR 20 east from I-5 through Sedro Woolley; travel along the Skagit River, pass high above Ross Lake, climb up to Washington Pass, and then down into Mazama and Winthrop. This road is closed in winter due to snow; so check our By Land in the "Travel Planner" for accessibility.
