Greshamのおすすめライド

Boring, Oregon has become somewhat famous, or infamous, depending on how you look at it. In recent years it has become well known due to its humorous take on its name and partnering with Dull, Scotland as "sister cities" in order to promote tourism to both locations.

The falls and the short trail that leads to its base both feel as if they have been lost to time. There is parking near the bridge of the historic highway from which you can look down upon the waterfall, and the stone trail to the falls is in good condition but overgrown with moss, lending a mystical feel.

Here's a perfect spot to take a break, park your bike, and walk up the trail for an excellent view of both Lower and Upper Multnomah Falls.

College Nature Park offers 62 acres of natural beauty adjacent to Mt. Hood Community College. Visitors can enjoy benches lining the pathways, ponds, and open grass areas. There are a few informational plaques around the park if visitors are interested in learning more about the area.

Chanticleer Point overlooks Rooster Rock State Park and the Columbia River. A great spot for a break and some pictures!

Just off the Springwater Corridor Trail, this area of lowland is, as its name suggests, a floodplain. The area includes woodland and bushy marshland. It is popular with wildlife, notably with birds and insects.
