Ride the Lewis & Clark Explorer Shuttle to Fort Clatsop during the summer season

The park is the home of the winter quarters of the Corps of Volunteers for North Western Discovery in 1805-06.

The park is open every day of the year except December 25th. Costumed programs are scheduled during the summer months, beginning mid-june and ending  Labor Day weekend.

The Visitor Center includes 2 theatres, an exhibit hall, laser disc programs in the lobby, and many displays which are rotated through the year.

The park has several trails, a picnic area, restroom facilities, and a replica of the fort the Corps of Discovery constructed as winter quarters after crossing what is now the United States in search of a water trade route to  the Pacific Ocean.

We hope you enjoy your visit to the park, both real and virtual!
