Discovery Historic Loop Trail (4 miles)

Few places in America offer so many historic and scenic attractions in such close proximity as this inviting urban trail. The 2.3-mile loop begins on East Evergreen and winds through Fort Vancouver National Historic Site, Officer's Row, and downtown Vancouver, joining the Waterfront Renaissance Trail at Vancouver Landing. Sights along the way include Fort Vancouver, Pearson Air Museum, Providence Academy and Esther Short Park. The trail can be covered in 1.5 hours, or enjoyed in sections to allow more time to explore.

You'll find easy parking on East Evergreen Blvd. at Officers Row.
