Who are the Friends of the Bluff?
Friends of the Bluff is a non-profit organization that works under the authority of the City of Spokane Parks Department to maintain, protect and improve Spokane's High Drive Bluff. We are a sustainable, community-supported organization that - through education, outreach, and direct conservation efforts - ensures that the Bluff will always be a protected, healthy, and natural ecosystem, accessible to all who wish to respectfully enjoy it.
Through volunteer efforts and community partnerships, we organize trail maintenance, fire suppression, invasive plant management, tree planting, park cleanup, and naturalist events.
What is the Bluff?
Hundreds of people drive along High Drive on Spokane's South Hill every day, yet many are completely unaware of the 600 acres of Ponderosa Pine forests and bunchgrass meadows that thrive along a steep hillside below. This large area of natural land is known as "The Bluff."
With over 20 miles of trails, the bluff is the perfect spot for anything from a morning stroll to a grueling mountain bike ride. It is also an ideal location for trail-running, hiking, dog-walking, birding, and watching the sunset.
