Cascade’s newest gravel ride, the Iron Horse Gravel, takes riders on a stunning journey through the historic Palouse to Cascades Trail, offering a mix of challenging climbs, exhilarating descents, and a ride through a legendary two-mile tunnel at Snoqualmie Summit.
You’ve heard about the old railroad tunnel through Snoqualmie Pass, and you really want to go check it out… and maybe kick back for a night in Cle Elum. Well, this summer is your chance to go exploring with other gravel-minded fellow cyclists!
For those who believe that gravel rides are all uphill, this one is for the first half of each day, but then all downhill for the rest. The highlight (actually, the high dark – bring a good light or three) is a two-mile tunnel that cuts through the ridge at the Snoqualmie Summit. Inside could be refreshingly dank and cool after climbing in the sunshine, and that downhill cruise afterward will raise your spirits as you drop elevation.
Escape through the woods Monday and Tuesday, August 11 - 12 on the smoothest off-road route along the old Milwaukee Road corridor of the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul, and the Pacific Railroad that connected Seattle to Ellensburg. We’re headed into the protected wilderness area from Snoqualmie to Cle Elum along the historic Palouse to Cascade trail, also known as the Iron Horse Trail.
