Boxley Creek Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

This is the first of several trestles going up the mountains, each more spectacular than the last. This one has a very nice waterfall that ranges from a trickle in the early Fall to a roaring gusher in the late Spring.

Cedar Falls

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

All told, the remade rail line known as the Palouse to Cascades Trail — also known as the Iron Horse or John Wayne trails — contains more than 100 miles (161 km) of trail from Cedar Falls to the Columbia River, all in a state park that only measures 100 feet (30 m) in width.

This trail's very gentle grades make for pleasant hiking, and surprisingly beautiful views when the trees open up at magnificent trestle bridges. The trail is very popular with cyclists as well.

Mine Creek Trestle Bridge

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

Winding through old-growth forest, this trail provides excellent views of the neighboring peaks on a high trestle bridge that adds an extra layer of special scenery.

Hall Creek Trestle

Highlight • Bridge

The Hall Creek Trestle is a historic steel and timber railway bridge built in 1912. It was once the old Milwaukee Road until, in 1988, a storm washed away a central 171-foot section of the bridge. In the 1990s, Washington State Parks restored the trestle, reconnecting the east and west segments of the former rail line, which is now part of the Palouse to Cascades (Iron Horse) Trail. The views down into Hall Creek Valley are genuinely stunning and worth the ride!
