As the sun sets later and later this spring, we’re getting a little more time every evening to get out and explore the nature close at hand.
Ending a weekday with a hike, walk, run or bike ride is great way to get a dose of nature into your day-to-day life, and also a way to avoid some of the crowds that tend to flock to local parks and trails on weekend mornings.
On this week’s episode of the Peak Northwest podcast, we take a look at some of the best spring evening hiking spots around the Portland metropolitan area, breaking down our top five favorites.
Whether you live in the suburbs of Washington County, the neighborhoods in Gresham or in the heart of Portland itself, there are plenty of beautiful places to get outside this season.
Here are some highlights from this week’s show:
- What makes a good spring evening hiking spot?
- Wetlands are great places for a walk with some wildlife at dusk.
- Head to Sauvie Island for a small adventure at the end of your day.
- Southwest Portland offers a wealth of accessible places to hike, walk, run or bike.
- A pair of parks on the east side of the Portland metropolitan area offer some of the best hiking close to the city.
