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.
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is essential right now. Follow the advice of the health experts. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Heading to the beach should only be considered an option if social distancing practices can be followed. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter the efforts to curb the virus’ spread.
