Led by local historians, the free Riverwalk tours lead you along the historic heart of old Tumwater, along the beautiful Deschutes River with its falls, foot bridges and salmon fish ladders.  Along the way you’ll learn first-hand about the rich history of the first permanent American community in what is now the State of Washington, Tumwater.

The tours take less than an hour and begin by the park office near the upper falls on Thursday mornings at 10:30 (July 16 – September 3).

This year we are adding some special tours led by Don Trosper.  These include five tours on a Tuesday evening at 6 p.m. (July 14, 28, August 18, September 1, and one on August 25 led by Terra Hegy) and three on Sunday afternoons at 3 p.m. (July 19, August 9 and September 6).  The tours are limited to 30 people.
