IN-PERSON EVENT

We will be exploring the Cowiche Canyon Winery Trail as a group on Saturday, June 29th, starting at 10AM. The Winery Trail is a 3.4 mile round trip that winds its way through the canyon and takes you up to the majestic Wilridge Winery. This trail is considered an easy route, and will take roughly 1 hour and 30 minutes to complete. Please note: there is a steep grade with loose footing for about 0.8 miles as the trail works its way up to Wilridge Winery.

DETAILED DIRECTIONS AND TRAIL INFORMATION

The Cowiche Canyon Wine Trail is a popular trail for birding, hiking, running, and includes an ample amount of solitude. The Wilridge Winery is a small family vineyard, orchard, winery, and distillery that has been in operation since 1988. The winery area contains vineyards, scenic vistas, and picnic areas. There are spectacular views as the trail climbs out of the Canyon. Once you arrive at the Wilridge Winery you can relax and unwind from your canyon hike with some wine tasting (and perhaps a picnic) in the outdoor seating area.
