We are spoiled with natural beauty. It is easy to say that as residents of Clark County. We have at our doorstep nearly endless opportunities to spend time with our families in the great outdoors all around southwest Washington. From stunning volcanoes and picturesque state parks to wildflower-filled hills overlooking the mighty Columbia River, we have the best of everything just a short drive from home. Some of the best places to go for fun, educational and beautiful adventures are our region’s National Wildlife Refuges. Here in Clark County, we have four that are a short drive from home along the Columbia. Taking a road trip and a walking adventure in these wildlife refuges with your family will ensure you have a great time in the natural splendor around our backyards. With the migration season just around the corner, now is the time to start planning your next adventure to a National Wildlife Refuge.
