The Palouse to Cascades State Park Trail (previously known as the John Wayne Pioneer Trail/Iron Horse State Park) is located within a rail corridor that stretches more than 285 miles across Washington State, following the historic route of the Milwaukee Road from Cedar Falls to the Idaho border. Washington State Parks currently manages approximately 250 miles of trail within this corridor. From the wheat fields of eastern Washington's Palouse region, through central Washington's Channeled Scablands and agricultural Columbia Basin, to the evergreen forests of the Cascade Mountains, this recreational trail showcases Washington's diverse landscape. This website was developed in response to a need for updated MAPS and INFORMATION for trail users and is not affiliated with Washington State Parks.
