    This is a bit out of the way, but if you need a break in your drive down the Gorge, stop here and let the kids run around. Don't miss the nearby Maryhill Museum.

    Nothing like it anywhere... unique. Very few people walking about. If you are visiting Goldendale, passing through Biggs Junction, or Maryhill Museum... might as well stop by for a look or two... you won't regret it.

    This is a replica of Stonehenge. Like several British Citizens have told me. This is better than the original. You can touch. No cyclone fence to keep you away.

    If you are in the Columbia Gorge, either wine-tasting or visiting the Maryhill Museum, be sure to make a short stop to visit the Stonehenge Memorial. It's a short drive beyond the Maryhill Museum and well worth the drive. It has spectacular views, naturally, of the Gorge and makes for a fun stop. Be prepared for high winds (hold on tight to your hats and small children) and take a camera so you can take some great shots of the views, and of your friends!

    An interesting and easily accessible place to stop and stretch your legs or have a picnic. It can be quite windy here above the Columbia River Gorge but it does offer a spectacular view and great photo opportunities. Even the shadows among the posts are intriguing. For kids, a good place for a story of ancient times: true or not. My kids always pretend they are being sacrificed on the stone altar or that it is the altar in Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe.

    We agree with most of the reviews -- no resemblance to Stonehenge, but just quirky enough to be worth a quick stop. The concrete structure (built as a memorial to local soldiers who died in WWI) and perfect circles don't resonate, but there are some great photos to be had between the pillars. (One view gives you the river, famous for its dams, another gives you a wind farm.)What IS worth stopping for is dinner at the Glass Onion in Goldendale, 12 miles away. See reviews -- this place is a find!

    Had seen this Memorial several times when traveling through and decided to stop this time. GREAT view of the gorge.

    Nothing there but a replica of Stonehenge. But just why wouldn't you take a few minutes to go see a replica of Stonehenge?

    The history of why Sam Hill built a Stonehenge replica is interesting, and the view is good. Although, besides Stonehenge, there's not much else to see.

    Otherwise, it's more or less bizarre that some 70-80 years ago a quirky baron of industry decided that a concrete replica of England's Stonehenge would be a nifty thing to replicate in the desert of eastern Washington as a World War I memorial. But I love 'quirky', so I stopped. And marveled. You should, too.

    This place has the most beautiful gorge views. It is an odd tribute to war veterans, but the location can't be beat. And, it makes for interesting photographs.

    Wonderful historical site. We call it Concretehenge, for obvious reasons. Just be aware, it's nearly always very windy here!

    It's actually a WWI memorial overlooking the Columbia Gorge. I assume it's a accurate reproduction of the original stone henge but made from concrete. The best part for us was the view and the wonderful fruit stand just down the hill.

    To be fair, it was over a hundred degrees when we visited so anything outside is not that interesting in that kind of weather! But it looks very contrived, like what Stonehenge would look like in Vegas, because it's made out of concrete and not stone. Keep in mind too that it's a replica of what Stonehenge originally looked like, not what it looks like today. But unlike the original, you can actually go in it to look and that should count for something.

    It was just OK. But it was free. Nice for kids to run around and climb on. Nice overlook. Plenty of parking. No bathrooms or porta-potty.
