Spokane River Centennial State Park Trail, National Recreation Trail in eastern Washington, US.
The Spokane River Centennial State Park Trail is a 40-mile paved pathway that winds alongside the river through dense pine forests and developed communities. The route connects several access points and allows visitors to explore different sections of eastern Washington on a single continuous path.
The route was constructed between 1989 and 1991 as a project celebrating Washington State's centennial anniversary. This development created the first continuous connection across multiple jurisdictions in the region.
The trail system connects multiple communities, educational institutions, and parks, providing spaces for outdoor activities and community gatherings throughout eastern Washington.
Access is free at most entry points such as Maringo, Islands, and Barker, while only specific areas within Riverside State Park require a pass. Visitors should check which access point matches their plans before arrival to avoid surprises.
The path continues across the state border and connects with the North Idaho Centennial Trail, which extends an additional 24 miles to Coeur d'Alene. This extension makes it possible to ride through two states on a single continuous route.
