A What a hidden gem. It’s such a beautiful park. Highly recommend! I bet during sunshine it’s even better. A river is flowing next to it and I think you can make a walk around it. Many benches and tables are around. Cool spot.

A very beautiful park! Very clean with restrooms and picnic tables! It is such a big wide open areas. There are multiple easy trails for walking. There are area for dogs to run around. Or you can even do fishing! The river is very pretty! It's a very family friendly park!

A beautiful park with lots of nature to revel in! Frog ponds, trails, wooded areas and open fields.. and the river! It’s quiet too. I often go here just to get away from the constant background traffic noise. I mostly hear birdsong and frogs in the late spring early summer. I just really love this park!

Nice park. Didn't have a chance to explore all of it. We hiked a 2 mile loop that took us by the river. We saw plenty of people with fishing poles so I guess this is a good place for fishing. There are lots of picnic areas, places for dogs to run, a pond with turtles, trees, grass and fields. Will definitely be returning.

Questions & Answers

Is there fishing here, banks or access to the water?

Even though it is technically a boat ramp/launch it is not a well maintained one, it has always given off an abandoned, unsafe, long-lost and forgotten vibe. Do to those conditions 99% of people come here to swim off the ramp, float around in tubes, launch their kayaks, peddle boats, or little fishing boats. There is always someone fishing off of the ramp and it seems like they are always catching something. There are numerous trails along the river that you can duck off and find that perfect spot to cast a line. There are also little ponds that are inside the park, I've witnessed a few fish being reeled in from those but personally I've always only had luck catching gigantic bullfrogs in there.

Google seems to think you can walk across the river to this park... How do I get here from the other side of the river?

This is a google maps fail the same thing happened to me. You'll either have to take the ferry (which is NOT where google maps sends you), or drive over via the I-5 south bridge or the one near Oregon City. I got there by using an address for a farm next to the east side of the park.

No luck just pedal bikes.

Can you get to the Molalla river on the trails? We tried but only found foot paths to the Willamette.

Mera F | Aug 17, 2020
Travis Neliton | Aug 17, 2020

Now that the Willamette has dropped down you can walk the edge of the Willamette from a trail that comes down the south end. I walked down to the Molalla twice this week that way
