About Forest Park / City Nature

Forest Park is inside Portland. You do not take a Class A onto Leif Erikson Drive for an overnight. You stage in St. Johns, Northwest, or an eastside driveway and walk or rideshare to a trailhead. Pittock Mansion is the overlook people photograph. The Wildwood Trail is the long one. An RV here is a basecamp for a city nature weekend: hike in the morning, Powell's or a Timbers match at night, sleep without a downtown hotel rate. Rain gear is equipment, not an afterthought. This page is city nature, not a remote forest campground.
