I'd been to Orenco Woods Park a couple of time and looking at the map, I found a parking area that didn't require me to cross any streets. I'd say this is a hidden gem. While you do walk under the power lines in places, it's a fairly flat trail that's paved and very well maintained. Walking along the creek, you could almost forget you're surrounded by businesses and houses in places. It appears to be a few connected parks along this trail. The orchards park loop seems to be a year round trail to me. Some sections farther north may be hot in the summertime, but I didn't make it up there to check. Overall, a great place to bike, walk and to take the dog. There is a section where there is a frisbee golf course. Nice Job Hillsboro.

Mind the gap. As…read moresomeone who regularly plays in and along the Willamette River, I should be raving all about the Willamette Greenway Trail. I'm kind of an 'Easy A' girl when it comes to parks and recreation. The problem is those pesky missing links. The goal to "maintain and enhance the scenic, recreational, historic, natural and agricultural qualities of the Willamette River and its adjacent lands" is outstanding. The desire to link various parks in and around the metro area is excellent. In execution, there is something lacking. The Willamette Greenway Trail system is everywhere in and around the Willamette River. There are the highlights that we all see on a daily basis like Tom McCall Waterfront Park and the Eastbank Esplanade. But parts of the trail venture far east (Troutdale) and south (Wilsonville) of the city proper. Having attempted to bike and hike on both sides of the river, there are sections of excellence and others of deep frustration. South Waterfront, I'm pointing a finger at you! I deeply enjoy the Springwater Corridor and Eastbank Esplanade, but man it is a whole different vibe on the west side of the river. Due to construction that seems like it will never end, there isn't a good waterfront trail for a long stretch between downtown and John's Landing. It is deceptive because I see people walking in front of those high rise condos when I'm on the river, but the developers have basically just paved a trail for the several hundred yards in front of their own building. On the west side you are also constantly barraged with "Private Property", speed limit signs and some challenging parking. Unfortunate because they have wonderful views of the river in the southwest. Sigh. I realize it is the nature of the beast (progress), they can only set aside so much land and preserve it from development. So in concept, five stars. Unfortunately, it still feels like a work in progress. One that has been irking me on a weekly basis. It is a very worthy project indeed, so I hope one day it will be gap free. Here's to hoping.

This trail is the "pretty girl's best friend" - it parallels the river, much like the Springwater…read moreCorridor does on the East side, but it still has some ugly to work out. It helps make a great loop from the Steel Bridge down to the Sellwood Bridge (via the Eastbank Esplanade and the Springwater Corridor), across the Sellwood to the this, the Willamette Greenway Trail, back up to downtown. You go through Willamette Park, and a scenic, paved trail along the water brings you behind condo after condo after (seriously? again?) condo built along the river. The barn swallows don't seem to mind - they were everywhere when we walked the trail. It was also high cottonwood season, so be forewarned if you're allergic. It gets a bit confusing once you hit South Waterfront, but at that point, you likely know your way back to downtown. There is even an opportunity for "oh my god my legs are going to fall off, I'm taking the damned streetcar back." Except I didn't.

You used to park in a gravel lot across Marine Drive and fight traffic to get across. Those days are long gone. Now they have to have 100 car parking lot adjacent to the beach. There is a day parking fee of 5 bucks. I walked along the beach as far up River as I could go. It was so nice and pretty. It is rockier than I remember but still a pretty nice beach. For the most part it was super clean. There was one small transient camp but they were still asleep when I walked by. There is a sign posted no camping, fishing or fires. I love how it is also kinda connected to the walking/running path that follows Marine Drive. I walked it for a distance. Super awesome to watch the planes and the river at the same time.
