    Hiking

    Ruby Falls is a mesmerizing waterfall in Lewis County, Washington, where the water plunges 21 feet over a bridge and then plunges another 31 feet into a deeper pool. This layered structure gives the waterfall an impressive sense of depth and power.
    What makes Ruby Falls truly special is the visual spectacle it creates when sunlight or artificial spotlights strike the falls. The spray catches the light and creates a dazzling play of reddish hues and pearlescent sheens—an effect that truly lives up to the name "Ruby."

    Ruby Falls is an underground waterfall with a 145-foot drop. The falls are open every day except for holidays, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. There is a fee to visit and take a tour. The waterfall is lit up with blue and purple lights, and there are many other rock formations to see on the cave tour as well.
