Cossatot River State Park

This park-natural area extends for 11 miles along the Cossatot River. The wild and scenic river forms Cossatot Fallas, a rugged and rocky scenic canyon that challenges the most experienced canoeists and kayakers (Class IV rapids). Floatable river levels are usually limited to late-fall, winter and spring.
