Vancouver Parks – Part 2 (Lewisville Regional Park)

This is the second part of series featuring one of the more than 130 parks in the Vancouver area. Today's featured is Lewisville Park in Battle Ground.

With over 154 acres of space, Lewisville is the perfect place for the outdoorsy types in Clark County. Cast a line in the East Fork of the Lewis River, or head over to the swimming hold for a quick dip. The covered picnic shelters are large enough to accommodate a large gathering like your next family reunion. There are several miles of trails that run alongside the river and into the surrounding woods and hills. In addition to tennis courts and horseshoe pits, there are several open sports fields for throwing a football or tossing around a Frisbee.

Between March 1 and November 30, the park is open from 7 AM to dusk. Entrance and parking is $3. The rest of the year the park is open only to bicycles and pedestrians, but there is parking just outside the gate. To get to Lewisville Regional Park, go north on SR-503 (about 3 miles north of Battle Ground), then turn right into the park.
