Upriver Dam Reservoir

Boulder Beach

Highlight • Beach

Named for a set of boulders near the parking area, this sandy public beach sits just off the Spokane River Centennial Trail. There's no entry fee, which makes this a particularly great spot to park your bike and take a dip — but remember that you're on a moving river with a definite current, so take appropriate precautions if you decide to swim. This is also a popular put-in for kayakers.
