16k - 458k - EVENT Y2964
This BIKE is rated 1B
Designated a National Recreational Trail, this rails-to-trails is enjoyed by hikers, horse riders, and bikers. It highlights a diverse and scenic landscape of forests, dark tunnels, high trestles, rivers, farmland and high desert. This current sanction covers the trail from its start in North Bend, WA to the Columbia River at Beverly, WA. You may do as much or as little of the trail as you wish and start at any one of numerous trailheads.
To complete the entire trail would be a multi-day project. This is a good blog to see photos and read about one person’s experience on the trail. https://washingtongravelriding.home.blog/2020/08/15/the-palouse-to-cascades-trail/
Note: Some sections get heavy snow in the winter. Please check weather conditions. Trail conditions and info can be found at: https://palouse to cascadestrail.org/
REGISTRATION: Online Start Box only. Sign in to https://my.ava.org
PRECAUTIONS: The surface of the trail varies from compacted gravel/dirt (easier riding) to asphalt (only
a tiny portion of the trail) to deeper gravel (when it has been freshly renewed). It is not recommended for narrow road bike tires. Wider tires with a good tread recommended, such as on a touring, commuter, gravel, mountain, or fat tire bike. E-Bikes are allowed and encouraged so that you can see more of the trail!
AWARD: IVV credit is $3.00. Free bikers welcome. Donations to support future walks and bikes are appreciated.
Thanks for participating and we hope you enjoy your ride.
