In 1967, the Willamette River Greenway initiative began, championed by U.S. Senator Maurine Neuberger. As it respects public access, native vegetation, and scenic landscapes, it is a great place to enjoy natures beauty and relaxing views of the river.

The Willamette River Greenway is a 5.3-mile out-and-back trail perfect for birding, running, biking, and walking. The Willamette River stretches over 255 miles from Cottage Grove to Portland, where it meets the Columbia River. Along its banks, the Willamette River Greenway provides open spaces, some with boat launches and camping, while others preserve native plants and scenic river views.
