About
Riverfront Park is a city park managed by the City of Spokane, about a mile from the center of Spokane, Washington. Its location makes it an easy stop for anyone already in town. For comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show May highs around 70°F and September highs around 76°F, with only a handful of wet days in July and August. Winter runs cold, with January highs near 38°F. The park sits close to several other outdoor spots. The Cliff Drive climbing area is about a mile away, and the Spokane Area climbing area is just beyond it. Hikers can head to the Polly Judd Trail or Tuffy's Trail, both about 1.8 miles off.
