Historic Columbia River Highway State Trail: Tooth Rock Trailhead

Toothrock Trail head is open ONLY to the paved Historic Highway State Trail at this time. Everything else remains closed at this time due to the Eagle Creek Fire [May 2020].

This just in, new videos from Oregon Department of Transportation that lay out the future development of sections of Historic Columbia River Highway State Trail. Check them out here.

Start your trek east or west along this section of paved trail. The eastbound 4-mile trail gradually climbs through dense woods, and then delivers majestic views of Bonneville Dam. The trail continues past the Eagle Creek trailhead (a U.S. Forest Service trail), Cascade Fish Hatchery and stops at the Bridge of the Gods Trailhead. Note: This segment has a staircase equipped with bikewheel grooves about 1 miles east of the trailhead. The trail leading up to the staircase is ADA accessible.

The 1-mile westbound portion of the trail crosses rushing Tanner Creek, passes breathtaking overlooks of the Columbia River and continues to the Historic Moffett Creek Bridge, and ends at John B Yeon State Park.
