More water after rain, upper and lower view.

Riding to Sunrise Visitor Center is a great challenge you can take on early in the morning to enjoy hiking some of the park’s trails and take in awesome views on the way up or down. Rangers can provide trail information and maps, and exhibits focus on the geology and natural history of the park’s northeast region.

From Sunrise Park Road you get breathtaking views of Mt. Rainier and Mt. Adams, two powerful mountains covered with a glacier blanket and surrounded by forest.

The Hall Creek Trestle is a historic steel and timber railway bridge built in 1912. It was once the old Milwaukee Road until, in 1988, a storm washed away a central 171-foot section of the bridge. In the 1990s, Washington State Parks restored the trestle, reconnecting the east and west segments of the former rail line, which is now part of the Palouse to Cascades (Iron Horse) Trail. The views down into Hall Creek Valley are genuinely stunning and worth the ride!

Mosier is a charming small town along the beautiful Columbia River, surrounded by stunning basalt cliffs. There are lovely restaurants, a cozy coffee shop and a small local market.

Great views from here. And... the middle of the trestle is different than either end because it had collapsed and was rebuilt in the late 90's

This is a bucket list item and crowning point for a daytrip up and back from Rattlesnake Lake. The 18-mile ride up to the Pass is relatively easy railroad grade and doable, even if you don't think you can get up here. But the highlight is then going through the tunnel to a completely different world on the other side. Definitely bring a jacket (it's maybe 45 degrees in there?) and absolutely deck your bike in the brightest lights you can find. The drip, drip, drip of water and murmurs of other people will follow you throughout the 2.3 mile tunnel. There is a very nice rest area in Hyak on the East side of the tunnel - lots of water, a bike repair stand and tools, and a nice spot for a picnic before you turn around and zoom down the trail in a third of the time it took to come up. Or you can continue on to the East if you want!

Outstanding views from the center of this trestle! Two major items of note - First, be careful as you approach this trestle, as there are a lot of rock climbers on the South side. Second, notice that the center concrete section of the trestle is different from the two graveled ends. This portion was destroyed in a storm and replaced (Thank you, State Parks!). If you stop and look down, you are WAAAAAY up there - not for the faint of heart!
