    Tips

    September 3, 2024

    The Banks-Vernonia State Trail is Oregon's first "rails-to-trails" park, repurposing a 21-mile abandoned railroad between Banks and Vernonia. The trail features an 8-foot wide paved path for hiking and biking, alongside a 4-foot gravel equestrian trail. It is at a generally gentle grade and passes through fields, forests, and farmlands with scenic mountain views, in Washington and Columbia counties. Key highlights include 13 bridges and the impressive Buxton Trestle, a 733-foot long, 80-foot high bridge, which is open to hikers and bikers.
