Columbia Plateau State Park Trail - Cheney Trailhead
Score4.3Open prairie and basalt scabland views from the Cheney trailhead offer wide, expansive landscapes, seasonal wildflowers, and dramatic skies—ideal for sunrise/sunset color and night-sky work. Trail is flat and accessible from roadside parking, usually no fee; best light at golden hour and blue hour. Spring brings flowers, autumn offers warm tones; winters give stark, minimalist compositions. Weekdays are quieter; prepare for wind and variable temperatures.
