| | Beacon Rock State Park | | The 13 miles of fire road is open to equestrian, mountain bike, and hiking use. Beacon Rock offers excellent opportunities for rock climbing except where it interferes with nesting raptors, primarily on the south face. The presence of the falcon nest requires that the south face be closed to technical rock activity February 1 to July 15 annually. The east face is closed year-round due to environmental sensitivity. There is fishing on the lower Columbia River, below Bonneville Dam, for sturgeon, salmon, steelhead, bass and walleye. The park is a popular site for weddings. |

| | Columbia Hills State Park | | The park is a 3,338-acre camping park with 7,500 feet of freshwater shoreline on the Columbia River. Horsethief Butte dominates the skyline. It stands over the lake like an ancient castle. The lake itself is about 90 acres in size and is actually an impoundment of the Columbia River. Rock climbers should take caution and know their limits. Fishing is permitted in Horsethief Lake. |
