Cowiche Canyon Trail - East
This 3-mile-long rail trail runs along the beautiful Cowiche Creek in Yakima’s west valley. The gravel path in the canyon has several worthwhile detours along the way. To the south, a steep connector climbs to the Cowiche Uplands Trails, which offer scenic views of the Yakima Valley. To the north, a short trail leads to the Wilridge Winery Tasting Room (and we all know wine is the best recovery drink!). Parking for the east-end trailhead is at the end of Cowiche Canyon Road. Learn more about Cowiche Canyon here where you’ll find maps, events, and information about the conservancy.
