Powell Butte Nature Park

Picnic · Editor rating, not a user review

4.2

A wilder park in the city, better for a walk than a playground.

Powell Butte is an open reserve in southeast Portland: meadows on top, forest on the way up, and a view once you clear the trees.

This is not a playscape. Bring shoes you can get muddy, and do not expect a campground or a fenced dog park. The picnic is a bench or the grass, not a reserved grove.
