Making memories with our educational programs.
The Fort Clatsop unit of the Lewis and Clark National Historical Park is a destination for visitors, tour groups, and school groups. The Lewis and Clark Expedition is brought to life through many educational activities here at the park. Each activity is tailored to the specific needs of each group. The park offers many programs to educators, such as Traveling Trunks, educational field trips, classroom video loans, curriculum publications and a variety of Fort Clatsop Institute courses.
Join us for hands-on history, nature up close, and learning fun!
Come explore our outdoor classroom. Fort Clatsop connects children and adults to their National Park and to the stories that have shaped the Columbia Pacific region. Educators offer a variety of experiences that take students of all ages back in time to discover what life was like for the Lewis and Clark Expedition during their 1805-06 winter stay at Fort Clatsop. With nature trails, forest and river exploration, Educators connect your students to the outdoors and brings classroom lessons to life. The guided education season runs during the school year, depending upon staff availability. Self-guided groups are invited year-round, with reservations.
