This hike will be 4 to 4.5 miles, out and back, along the lower Klickitat River in Washington. The trail has a good dirt and gravel surface, with a gradual elevation gain to the turn-around point. This area is known for its population of migratory eagles in the winter. Hopefully, we will be there at the right time to see some eagles.
