Length
The trail is about a three-mile section of old Tarpiscan Road, now closed. Visitors will gently climb on this road through the mountains high above the Columbia River.
There are two gates along the road, about 1.5 miles apart. The section of trail between the two gates goes through private property. The old road right of way is still public, however, so stay on the road, just be sure to respect the private property on both sides of the road.
As you hike, look north towards the town of Rock Island, and south to Crescent Bar and West Bar with its huge ripples formed during massive Ice-Age floods.
