Welcome to Columbia Springs!

Columbia Springs Environmental Education Center provides environmental education opportunities for the community and students of all ages. Last school year more than 11,000 Clark County students and chaperones visited Columbia Springs for field trips and service learning activities.

Columbia Springs is located on one hundred acres of urban greenspace at the historic Vancouver Trout Hatchery. The center is open daily. Visitors can hike on nature trails, observe birds and wildlife, and visit the working hatchery.
