Twin Peaks put the PNW on the map and despite being over 30 years old, is still a popular show. As it was set in Washington, a good chunk of filming was done here too. While things have changed considerably since the 1980’s, there are still plenty of places to check out. Here are 6 local Twin Peaks shooting locations that you can visit.
Filming locations are from the City of Snoqualmie with the exception of Laura’s Log and the Great Northern Interior which are from Kiana Lodge.
The Great Northern Hotel

It is indeed a real place and it sits above the majestic Snoqualmie Falls, which was also featured in the show. What’s more, you can stay there! Now keep in mind that the interior shots for the hotel were filmed elsewhere, but you really can’t say no to a visit to the iconic Salish Lodge & Spa.
Where: 6501 Railroad Avenue SE, Snoqualmie, WA

Want to be a hardcore motorcyclist at the Bang Bang Bar? Well, tough luck because the real Roadhouse Restaurant & Inn is actually pretty family-friendly. But you can visit the cute establishment for some drinks and eats while you’re in Fall City. You’ll just have to pretend that James Hurley is going to roll up.
Where: 4200 Preston Fall City Rd SE, Fall City, WA
Double R Diner

By far the most iconic restaurant in the series, the Double R Diner is still kicking to this day. You can head to Twede’s Cafe in North Bend to enjoy classic diner eats and of course some delicious pie and damn good coffee. The restaurant has all sorts of memorabilia and is pretty much the ultimate spot for fans of the show.
Where: 137 W North Bend Way, North Bend, WA

How could anyone forget the iconic opening scene of Twin Peaks? The music, the drama, Laura herself wrapped in plastic. Well if you want to lay on the beach you can go visit Laura’s Log at Kiana Lodge.
Where: 14976 Ne Sandy Hook Rd. Poulsbo, WA
Inside the Great Northern Hotel

While you’re at Kiana Lodge you’re going to want to look inside the buildings because this is where parts of the interior for the Great Northern Hotel were shot for the pilot episode. The interior was later recreated on a soundstage in LA but nonetheless, it’s still super cool that you can check it out in person.
Where: 14976 Ne Sandy Hook Rd. Poulsbo, WA
Ronette’s Bridge

Don’t worry you won’t see Ronette Pulaski ominously walking across the bridge these days. Instead, you’ll find a paved path as the railroad tracks on this iconic bridge were removed since the show was filmed.
Where: Reinig Bridge, SE Reinig Rd, Snoqualmie, WA
Have fun out there!
