Willapa Hills Trail - Chehalis to Adna

WWRP Applicant: State Parks
RCO Project Number: 08-1361
County: Lewis 
Legislative District: 20th 
WWRP Category: Trails
WWRP Grant: $300,000
Project Type: Development

Description:

The goal of this project is to pave 1.5 miles of trail to complete and open the 4.7 mile segment of trail between Chehalis and Adna. The Willapa Hills Trail is a 56-mile long rail trail which runs from Chehalis to South Bend, the western terminus of the proposed cross state trail. Currently most of the trail is closed to the public because of the 2007 flood damage to the rail-bed, trestles and bridges. Seperate funds provided by the Federal Government, as well as through the State will help to build parking lots at two trailheads, bridge decking, and a small portion of trail surfacing. This grant will augment the funds to complete the construction of this 4.7 mile segment. This proposal is a major component of the Lewis County Trails Association's effort to build a network of trails in Lewis County. In addition, improvements to the Willapa Hills Trail are identified as a priority in State Parks' Centennial 2013 plan.
