Lewis and Clark National Historical Park

The park spans 3,303 acres along the Columbia River, featuring dense rainforests, coastal trails, and a reconstructed Fort Clatsop settlement.

The fort within the park served as a winter shelter for the Corps of Discovery expedition from December 1805 to March 1806.

Park rangers wearing period clothing demonstrate traditional skills like flintlock rifle use, buckskin preparation, and candle making during summer months.

The entrance fee costs 3 dollars for adults, with free admission for children under 15, and the park operates daily from 9 AM to 5 PM.

The Fort to Sea Trail extends 6.5 miles from the historical fort structure through forests and meadows to reach the Pacific Ocean.
