Catherine Creek West Loop Hike

Overview

This hike starts at the Catherine Creek Trailhead and offers a route up the wooded west side of the Catherine Creek Canyon to the open slopes of Sunflower Hill, where there are views extending east to the Rowena Gap and Columbia Hills and west over the Rowland Basin to the Labyrinth . Many trails and trail junctions are unsigned, so pay attention to directions. The hike is best done anticlockwise as described so you are facing the magnificent vistas over the Columbia River Gorge as you descend the slope: this loop should only be done on a sunny day, and the months of March through May are best for wildflowers.
