Historic Areas

Abandoned Fort

The Fort Stevens Military Reservation guarded the mouth of the Columbia River from the Civil War until World War II. The fort, located one mile north of the campground, was turned over to the State Parks and Recreation Department in 1976.

Park visitors can explore the abandoned gun batteries. You can climb to the nearby commander's station for a scenic view of the Columbia River and South Jetty. A brochure for a self-guided walking tour is available on request.

Shipwreck Remains

Near the beach parking area is the rusting wreck of the "Peter Iredale". The English sailing ship ran aground during a storm in 1906.

Military Museum

The Military Museum contains many military artifacts and interpretive displays depicting the history of the fort from the Civil War era to the shelling of Battery Russell by a Japanese submarine during World War II. The museum is open daily from June through September and Wednesday through Sunday during the remainder of the year.

Guided Tours

During the summer months, guided tours of one-of-a-kind underground Battery Mishler and a tour in the back of a restored 1954 "deuce-and-a-half" army truck are also available. Group tours may be arranged by calling the Historic Area Military Museum at (503) 861-2000 between 10 am and 2 pm Monday through Friday. Allow two weeks advance notice.

Tours, special events and museum services are provided by the Friends of Old Fort Stevens, a private, non-profit group.

South Jetty on Clatsop Spit

South Jetty was built in the late 1800's by the Corps of Engineers. An observation platform located near the jetty is a good spot to watch waves breaking and see big ships crossing the Columbia River bar. Wildlife viewing platforms, located on the Clatsop Spit overlooking the Columbia River and near Swash Lake, are excellent spots for bird watching.
