Willapa Hills Trail
About a 5-minute walk from the home. This ~56-mile rail-trail between Chehalis and South Bend is relatively flat and family-friendly where surfaces allow. Local asphalt stretches about 5 miles between Raymond and South Bend. Hours are typically 8 a.m. to dusk; a Discover Pass is typically required for trailhead parking. Washington State Parks lists the Lebam to Heckard Road section in Raymond as closed October 19, 2026 through January 31, 2027 for trail improvements. State Parks also notes ongoing closures at milepost 38.5 west of Lebam (washout) and at Trestle 48 between mileposts 48–49 east of Heckard Road (unsafe due to erosion). Other portions remain open.
