Entiat Waterfront Trail
- Status
- Funded in 2011
Entiat will use this grant to redevelop about 6 acres along the Columbia River and Lake Entiat. The City will develop a 1-mile waterfront trail; restore habitat along the shoreline; install trail lights, benches, and trash cans; and build a parking area, road, and restroom. The project will establish habitat along this shoreline of statewide significance, provide the public with access and views to the water, and create environmental and historical educational opportunities at viewing areas and with interpretive signs. The trail is part of a larger, planned project that ultimately will connect to form about 6 miles of continuous trail. The City will contribute $500,000 from local and state grants.
Location
From the junction of US 2 and US 97 A in Wenatchee, proceed north on US 97 A about 18 miles. You will see the entering Entiat sign as you cross the Entiat River Bridge. The entry point for the first phase of the Columbia River trail will be at Lakeshore Drive, on the east (left) side of the highway as you proceed north. The project site is located in the lower elevation area you will come to immediately after crossing the railroad tracks. To drive to the northern end of the trail site for this phase, stay on US 97 A, proceed to Shamel Street, follow Shamel north until you reach the gated railroad crossing. This gate is generally locked due to gravel mining activity. Please call Bob at City Hall for assistance at 509-784-1500.
