Indian Creek Hike

Overview

Hood River's Indian Creek Trail, which will be almost six miles long when completed, is currently in two segments that await connection via an easement through private property. The oldest section, described here, begins above the deeply incised canyon of Indian Creek where it joins the Hood River. This was, in fact, the old way trail which connected the upper and lower parts of the city and which also served as the conduit for the wooden flume which brought water to a fruit cannery in the lower settlement. The old wooden flume is still there, although it no longer carries water, and the trail takes you away from residences and businesses into a leafy canyon which displays a variety of wildflowers in the spring.
