Urban Trails Portland: Beaverton, Lake Oswego, Troutdale
Among the hundreds of parks and natural spaces around the Portland area, Forest Park gets the most recognitionâ€•and deservedly soâ€•as Americaâ€™s largest urban forest with more than 80 miles of hiking trails and biking paths. Yet thereâ€™s more to explore in and around the city than just this one forest, and Urban Trails: Portland, by hiking writer Eli Boschetto, brings this abundance to the people! There are plenty of opportunities for wandering the banks and wetlands of Portlandâ€™s three major rivers, as well as hiking on volcanic buttes, strolling through community gardens, discovering historic sites, and walking urban footpaths. Add to that, tips on observing some of the hundreds of species of birds and mammals that reside in these areas, and you practically have an urban safari at your doorstep.

- Trailhead directions, including public transit where available
