Description
Daily - dawn to dusk. Closed on Christmas. Chehalis began as a settlement around a warehouse beside a railroad track in 1873, when the Northern Pacific Railroad built northward from Kalama to Tacoma, and ignored Claquato, then the county seat three miles to the west. Some settlers decided that, if the railroad would not go to the county seat, the county seat must go to the railroad. By 1874, a store was added to the warehouse, several houses were constructed, and the county seat was moved to the new settlement. The walk is along sidewalks and road shoulders through residential and business districts including historic houses and the Train Depot Museum.
