Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center

At Fort Canby State Park

The interpretive center traces the 2-1/2 year, 8,000-mile trek led by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, with emphasis on the human and historical aspects of the expedition.

Exhibits portray medical treatment, food, entertainment, discipline and the contributions of the Chinook and other tribes to the trip's success.

Sketches of the explorers and artifacts collected on the expedition are displayed, and a multimedia presentation depicts the highlights of the journey. Additional displays focus on local maritime and military history. Also visit the center's gift shop and observation deck with fabulous views of the ocean.

There is a 200-yard uphill walk to the center. Open 7 days a week, year-round.
