Springwater Trail Hike from Boring to Rugg Road
- Distance: Approximately 5 miles
- Difficulty: Easy
- Elevation gain: 100 feet
- Trail conditions: Pavement
- Round-trip travel: 8 miles
- Suggested donation per rider: $1
We will drive to Boring and park at the Boring trailhead, where parking and restrooms are available. We will start our walk on this section of the Springwater Trail, the last section to be paved back in 2013. We will walk west to Rugg Road, where we will turn around and return to our cars at the Boring trailhead. We will then drive back to Gresham and have lunch at a local downtown restaurant.
Bring water and snacks for the trail. Since the walk is all on paved sections of the Springwater Trail, wear shoes that are comfortable for walking on asphalt. Umbrellas may be necessary, depending upon the weather, since the trail has no tree canopy.
For more information about this hike please contact Mary Ann Buck at 971-344-1946 or buckbanter@gmail.com.
Senior Healthy Hikers asks that participants be 50 or older. A couple wishing to hike is welcome if one member of the couple is 50 or better.
Pets are not permitted on our hikes or walks.
