The Dalles Dam Tour Train
FREE
|
The tours are conducted by skilled guides and depart from The Dalles Dam Visitor Center on the hour and half hour. The complete tour takes an hour and does not require climbing any stairs. A small brightly painted train takes visitors from the Visitor Center at Seufert Park on the Oregon shore to the fish ladder and powerhouse for a guided tour. Hydropower exhibits in the powerhouse explain the operation of the dam, and Native American petroglyphs recovered from Petroglyph Canyon are displayed nearby. Picnic tables are available at the Visitor Center and also at the sturgeon pond, which is an optional train stop.
