MMMmmmmm!

This World War II era transport train was used to move troops for the allies during 'The War to End All Wars'.  Currently, it sits near the east end if the Riverwalk Bridge just off the loop trail.  There is a caboose nearby, as well as a fully functional small train which takes children fir rides occasionally.

Photo: Last Fall in the Horan Nature Area



The Horan Nature Area is located just off the loop trail, right alongside the Columbia River, and very near to everything in Wenatchee.  This photo was taken last fall during a walk through this fun little outdoors area right in town.

Photo: Wenatchee's Miniature Railway



Located just of the loop trail and near the Riverwalk Bridge, Wenatchee's Riverfront Railway is a miniature train that rides on its own miniature track.  When the weather is nice, the train comes out of its hiding place and even gives rides to cildren from time to time.  This is a very fun way to make a visit to the park or trail even more enjoyable.
