This a wonderful trail just out of town near Yakima, WA. The area is beautiful and trail runs along a river making this an excellent place to go running to get away from everything or just a short manageable hike to take the family on as it is flat enough for small children to travel a ways on it.

A small natural area in sagebrush near town and great for a short day hike. There is not a lot to see but just nice to get outdoors in a natural area.

This is just a great way to get out and feel far away from it all to run, walk, mountain bike (up top) Practically all year around. Watch out for rattlers in the summer.

We take our 4 kids at least twice a year to the canyon for a hike. This year we saw our first rattle snake! We've also seen rabbits eagles and various types of bugs. What an incredible experience for our kids! They loved climbing the rocks, crossing the bridges, and exploring the trails.

The cowiche conservancy group is doing an excellent job with this trail. It is easy to walk, gravel or hard packed dirt, lots of trees, stream following along the trail, lots of things for the kids to explore. Several bridges to cross. We enjoyed sitting on the bridge dangling our feet or throwing rocks into the water. For an authentic... More
