What a great hike & it is right in our back yard. Pretty busy trail with lots of people running, walking & hiking. Anyone that is up for a challenge, I recommend getting up early & doing the whole thing.

The largest urban park in the county, lined with trails for hiking and biking.

This is an amazing resource right in downtown Portland. The trailheads are not overly obvious, but I would recommend accessing from the Lower Macleay Park at 1905 NW 29th Ave. From here you can take a short walk (maybe a mile) along a stream through the woods to reach the "Witches Castle" stone house ruins. The hike does have an incline and some uneven ground but would be fun for families with small children. It is a well traveled trail and felt very safe.
