Celilo Park
Oregon, United States

The river near Celilo Park was once home to Celilo Falls which served as a crossroads and trading hub for native communities. The falls were submerged with the completion of The Dalles Dam in 1957. Celilo Park is a well-established park on the banks of the river. On windy days it can become crowded with windsurfers who enjoy the grassy rigging area. The site offers a paved boat ramp, bathrooms, picnic tables, and plenty of big trees for shade. Parking and camping are free.
