The Wild and Scenic Snake River flows through the rugged Hells Canyon, and at 1,078 miles long, it is the largest tributary to the Columbia River. Travelers on the Oregon trail journeyed through Snake River canyons on their way to the Willamette Valley. Today visitors can enjoy rafting, kayaking and jet boat tours on the river, as well as hikes along the river.
