Stewardship and Service Since 1984
Palisades Park is 700+ acres of dedicated conservation parkland just minutes from downtown Spokane.
Palisades is a Spokane City park available for hiking, biking, horseback riding, and nature observation. It also provides captivating views of the city of Spokane. Friends of Palisades is a 501(c)3 organization that helps conserve and maintain the natural beauty of the park.
Friends of Palisades are park stewards.
In 2002, Friends of Palisades was formed as a non-profit organization dedicated to the promotion, preservation, and maintenance of the park. We work to (1) educate the public about the park through various programs and events, (2) present park issues to the City, and (3) increase the size of the park whenever possible. We bring together park volunteers and supporters for work party events, social activities, and to address any safety concerns.
And we need and welcome your help. Please contribute to the Friends of Palisades so that we may continue to keep the park safe, healthy, and clean.
Upcoming Events
We need you!
Ours is an ongoing volunteer effort to ensure this natural park is preserved, protected, and maintained. Although Palisades feels like it’s miles from City center, it sits just outside of Spokane. The amazing quiet of nature blankets this park, providing critical wildlife habitat and open space. Join our team and become a member of the Friend of Palisades Park or volunteer to help during our Annual Clean-Up or to assist in other events, such as trail maintenance, weed pulling and forestry work.
