Beacon Rock Hike | Stunning Panoramic Views in the Columbia River Gorge
The Beacon Rock hike is one of the most unique experiences in the Columbia River Gorge trail system, blending stunning views with incredible Beacon Rock Washington history. If you're looking for a hike that combines scenery and story, this is it. Located near Stevenson, Washington, Beacon Rock stands as a massive basalt monolith shaped by ancient floods. What makes this trail truly remarkable is how it was built—entirely by hand between 1915 and 1918. Workers carved into solid rock using chisels and hammers, creating a path with 52 gradual switchbacks to safely guide visitors to the top. There were no modern tools, no machinery—just determination and vision from Henry Biddle, who believed everyone should experience this natural landmark. Today, the trail remains a testament to that effort. If you're visiting the Columbia River Gorge, Beacon Rock offers one of the most memorable hikes in the region—both for the views and the story behind them.
