200-foot Palouse Falls, Washington’s state waterfall, is a great day trip from Walla Walla and fun to visit any time of year. The giant icicles hanging from the basalt culumns surrounding the horse-shoe falls are quite magnificent to view in the winter and the drive from Walla Walla takes you through the scenic Palouse canyonlands, traversing the Snake River over a beautiful bridge. | Marcus Whitman Hotel & Conference Center
