Federation Forest State Park is a day-use natural area with 619 acres of old growth evergreens. Located along the White River, the park provides visitors with 12 miles of hiking trail, three interpretive trails, an interpretive center with a gift shop and four picnic areas. The park was acquired, built and organized through the work of Catherine Montgomery and her affiliation with the Washington State Federation of Women’s Clubs. The park was dedicated in 1949 and was acquired in four parcels from 1941 to 1971.
