AREA HISTORY The Rocks of Sharon and the Iller Creek area are part of the larger Dishman Hills Conservation Area in Spokane County, known for their granite rock formations, forested trails, and sweeping views of the Palouse. The Rocks of Sharon, sometimes called “Big Rock,” were named after a nearby stop called Sharon on the old electric railroad that once connected Spokane and Pullman in the early 1900s. Visitors would ride the train out to the hills for picnics and hikes, helping make the area a longtime local recreation destination. Over time, the area became popular among hikers, climbers, and nature enthusiasts for its unique granite monoliths and scenic ridgelines. Much of the land was later preserved through Spokane County’s Conservation Futures Program and the efforts of the Dishman Hills Conservancy, which helped protect the landscape from development and improve public trail access. Today, the Iller Creek trails and the Rocks of Sharon remain one of the Spokane area’s most popular outdoor destinations for hiking, wildlife viewing, and rock climbing.
