This is a nice, easy-paced hike alongside a marsh environment. Located 6 miles northwest of downtown Spokane, Cheney ~ EWU Holmberg Park this hike has some of the most beautiful scenery in our area. At the trailhead, you will find ancient Indian paintings on the rocks; and as you make your way along the riverbanks, you will want to keep an eye out for the blue heron rookery in the tall cottonwoods by the river. There are a variety of animals that make the Little Spokane their home, including beaver, coyotes, deer, cougar and even moose. (No bikes or pets.)
