This trail is a barrier-free interpretive trail that tells the story of forest management from a historical perspective. Signs and a brochure guide visitors along the trail, which runs along an old railroad grade (dating back to 1913) and past features associated with railroad logging by the Wind River Logging Company. The trail also goes past a wetland area and into an old-growth forest. The final leg of the trail takes visitors through an old Wind River Nursery field. Enjoy the lush scenery, waterfalls, wildflowers and spectacular views encountered on the trails within the Gorge and the Gifford Pinchot National Forest featured here..
A NW Forest Pass is Required.
The Whistle Pink Trail is an interpretive walk through the woods, beside old pieces of logging equipment. There are signs to explain the role of the equipment and the role of the “whistle punk”. Easy walk with children, loops back to the parking lot. There you will find picnic tables and toilets. Nice way to spend an afternoon.
