This is a nice big park in the middle of Eugene that is suitable for many activities such as picnicking and bike riding. That's exactly what I was doing here. The bike ride was great except for the fact that it was raining much of the time. The picnic shelters and restroom facilities are above average for a public park. This is a great place for everyone.

Beautiful park with awesome running and biking trails through meadows, along the river, and around a lake. Just missing a playground for the kids!

Alton Baker Park is a great park for all ages and sports. There are beautiful biking and hiking trails and the famous barked Pre’s trail. Frisbee golf, fishing and even areas you can swim in the river. A wonderful dog park. A canal you can go kayaking. A large covered picnic table and many benches and smaller picnic tables in many spots. Just an all round wonderful peaceful and serene place. No more homeless camps in the area.

A beautiful park that has its own trails, ponds and Willamette river flowing on one side. You can take a walk or ride a bike or simply sit by one of the ponds and watch ducks and geese playing with be water. A few trails were closed for the public right now, but without that too, it pretty much gave the pleasure to my eyes.

Are there BBQ pits or is grilling allowed if I bring my own grill?

Patrick McCune | May 19, 2021
Greg Wiseman | May 20, 2021

There are two sheltered eating laces that has their own built in cooking places but yes you may bring your own BBQ. If you do that and side you bring something to extinguish the coals so you are not driving home with them or leaving them still going in a pile back at the park. Just a bottle of water or a container to fetch some from the Willamette River

Is there homeless ppl here?

Diego Rodriguez | Apr 14, 2020
Phillip Walter | Apr 15, 2020

No they all have a home. Be it their spot or a house its a home. Why introduce a discriminating view point about this person or that person. Why can't we all just be humans? Update you think you don't like seeing homeless everywhere. Imagine people staring at you everywhere you go. Just because they are to afraid to live outside. A house gives a sense of security. I used to be a professional criminal. It doesn't protect you. it makes you an easy target. Google a bump key before you rest assured at night cause any moron can open every dead bolt in seconds of they have the idea to Google it. Hell try embracing the idea.... I bet you'll same more then switching to Geico. What on average about 12-24 Grand a year. Imagine how much less lumber gas chemicals blah blah blah would be saved if we all skipped houses and had a more efficient barn idea for winter. Instead of all the buildings we could have a natural landscape with just housing pods for winter. But then you might be friends.

Can we swim in the river?

Nada Ghunaim | Apr 15, 2019
Catherine Olson | Apr 16, 2019

You can enter the river around the park (I often take my dog in after or before dog park). And, people kayak on it. But, yeah, in the RIVER, river, not the little parts around the park, it can be very fast, and people have drowned. People often go in around Division Ave/River Ave. It's calmer there, but, ALWAYS, EVERYONE, WEAR A LIFE JACKET!! This includes pets!! And, there's always Fern Ridge, just out of town. I think there's a fee, but, it's great for swimming, especially with kids!

Where do I go to rent a kayak or canoe? I see nothing on the parks website regarding rentals.

Kym | Apr 15, 2019
Dan Saunders | Apr 16, 2019

The last time I was there, the rental person was west of the docks where there was a rounded spot that jutted out a little. You would have been able to see them from the bridge as you crossed it going into the park.

Are there power outlets here like for electric grills? Or charge a phone while the kiddies play?

renee Berg (Renee) | Apr 14, 2021
Joe James | Apr 15, 2021

I believe that you can arrange for a party or that sort of thing and reserve one of the "picnic covers " and arrange for the parks people to turn them on. But there is definitely the facilities for cooking and all that.

Are you allowed to use pontoon boats for fishing

Luke “Bass Slayer” Truex | Apr 15, 2018
Chad Lybarger | Apr 16, 2018

Alton Baker Park would not be the place to use a pontoon boat. A pontoon boat would be great to use in a lake for sure though.
