The Willapa Hills Trail, a Rails-to-Trails Conservancy project, stretches for 56 miles from Chehalis to South Bend. The western portion from Pe Ell to Raymond is best suited to mountain bikes as it is not yet paved. Park at Riverfront Park in Raymond and ride to South Bend and back on a paved section for a 10.5-mile excursion. Or head across Hwy 101 and east to Menlo for a 12.5-mile out and back, or to Lebam for a 30-miler through the forest and farmlands. Cap off your ride with a craft brew at Wild Man Brewing Company, Willapa Brewing Co., or Pitchwood Alehouse.
