The Mount Saint Helens Visitor Center was established a few short years after the eruption of the nearby volcano. The center features educational exhibits and programs related to the historical significance of the area, the impact of the eruption on the ecosystem, and more.
The mountain is visible both from the center and along the walking trail. Exhibits in the visitor center include a large, interactive model of the volcano, a working seismograph with live-feed from Mount Saint Helens, and a theater program which shows a film twice an hour.
The 0.6-mile walking trail features boardwalks along Silver Lake, where visitors can enjoy the natural surroundings and wildlife.
