Mt. Spokane State Park

Typical woodland environment on Mt Spokane

Eastern Washington. Mount Spokane has many great hiking, biking, and equestrian trails - day hikes that easily accommodate all interests and abilities. The trails are used year-round, and because of this several of the trails need to be heavily maintained and improved to withstand the continual foot/tire/hoof traffic. This is a new project for WTA, and we hope you will join us as we start to help the Park on their endeavor to upgrade these trails.

Mt Spokane is laced with a 100 mile trail system that is popular with hikers, bikers and equestrians in the summer and with skiers and snowshoers in the winter. The trail system runs from the base of the mountain to the summit and covers varied ecosystems ranging from deep pine and cedar forests to open meadows. Wildlife including deer, moose, the occasional bear and cougar can be found on the slopes of this mountain.

Driving directions:
Take US rte 2 (Newport Highway) to the junction with state rte highway 206, known as Mt Spokane Park Drive. Follow that to the park entrance and drive 1.6 miles farther to the Lower Loop Road trailhead known locally as "the hairpin turn." There is a Sno-Park lot where volunteers can park.
