My favorite urban swimming hole

In the summertime, do bring a swimsuit and swimming sandals or shoes. The docks outside OMSI (just a little north of the building) by Alder Creek Kayak are a great place to live like a local and get a little urban swimming in.

Sightseeing

You can rent from them and roll your kayak or paddleboard down the paved sidewalk to the docks at Willamette Park. This is a great way to see a bit of the city (and then jump in to cool off!) You can also take lessons if you reserve in advance! Great group activity! (With Paddle Boards you can also rent for some big SUP events like the Witches Paddle near Halloween or the Santa Paddle in December).

One of the easiest ways to access Forest Park and the Wildwood Trail. Wildwood Trail has 33 miles of great running and walking routes, tons of other trails and trailheads also connect to it.

Here is a tip: dive in and get the pints all lined up in the freezer. You can bypass the line and do so (of course, you can't sample this way!)

旅行者へのアドバイス

必要な持ち物

Prepare to dress in layers!

While we typically enjoy a moderate climate here in Portland, temperatures often fluctuate 30 degrees (or more!) from dawn until dusk. We recommend comfortable layers. Summertime travelers: river jumping in the Willamette is a popular pastime. (I so love this!) Especially when temperatures soar. Bring a swimsuit and swimming sandals/shoes (bottom of the river is both muddy and rocky).
