The park’s main visitor center sit’s on a hill overlooking the Clearwater River.
In the Nez Perce language, this place is called ?iyíwewiy. In English we call it the Spalding site. It was at this location that Henry Spalding set up his mission in the 1830s. Enjoy!
Since 1916, the National Park Service has been entrusted with the care of our national parks.
