This approximately 3.5-mile hike covers both sides of the Willamette River between the Hawthorne and Burnside bridges. A short detour from the Hawthorne Bridge will take us to OMSI and the New Oregon Rail Heritage Center, where we will see four immense railroad locomotives and the railroad history of Portland and the Northwest. Admission to the Rail Museum is free; however, donations are appreciated.

  • Round-trip travel: By TriMet MAX ($2 for those 65 and older)
  • Difficulty: Moderate
  • Elevation gain: 250 feet

After the walk we will stop at a local restaurant for lunch. Bring rain gear, warm clothing, water and a snack to eat on the hike. Sturdy walking shoes are recommended.
