One of Yakima's best places for a walk a hike or mountain bike ride. I hike here often and love to see how it changes throughout the year with our four distinct seasons here in the valley.
I love that there are so many different trail options to choose from and go from the uplandz down into the canyon floor.. You can even hike to a winery from the canyon, which I highly recommend.
In the springtime when the wildflowers start to bloom is my favorite time to visit the canyon frequently as for about a month the scenery changes there almost daily with so many various flowers coming into bloom.
If you are there in the upper canyon about an hour before sunset it's the perfect time to hear all the calls of the meadowlark birds.
