Miles of jogging and bicycle paths orginate in this popular urban park.
Reviewed By 146jeremyg
Amazing park: went for a 5-mile run with my buddy, it was amazing. You get your choice of trails: asphalt, soft redwook bark, or even riverside rugged. Plenty of space on the wide trails. Lots of variety. Looks like kayaking would be nice in the canals. A good looking frisbee golf course. Conveniently located to the Residence Inn across the street.

Home of the Oregon Ducks college track & field team, this iconic venue is a must see for those that like track & field. Host of the Olympic Trials, NCAA Championships and The Prefontaine Classic. You can feel the history oozing out as you walk around. I visited during Christmas break so it was locked up nobody was around.

Overall Ratings

Had no idea how great this was going to be. It is a self directed tour. The Center does great work. One of the nice things is you move along at your own pace. So when you connect emotionally with a bird you can stand there as long as you like. Maps help you get around and the placard are well done. Keepers/volunteers are very informative and helpful. The center is on the side of a hill so there is walking downhill and up. We were there on a beautiful day. I would assume it is a bit tougher on a rainy day.

7. Skinner Butte Park

Reviewed By jacquelinej757 - Kalispell, United States
I love the historical parts of this Butte. I love seeing the mansion, and the drive up, getting out for the views... and I love the park nearby as it has interesting playground equipment which is a rarity these days. There is a whale the kids can climb on and inside of... and it is painted pretty colors. I love the swings and the interesting little log cabin. The trails in the park were amazing to walk and our children used their scooters and skateboards for nice long sections. The river next to the park is of course gorgeous.

9. Autzen Stadium
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 195 reviews
Reviewed By lost_bobcat - Newberg, United States
What a terrific college atmosphere. From massive tailgates around the stadium to great seats everywhere you go. Such a fun time, UofO is the home of the filming of Animal house and they are very proud of this herititage. The second half of all home games features a crowd raising rendition of "Shout" where everyone is ready to party or move by this time. Cool places to go at halftime with games and bounces for big and little kids and lots of drink choices at the far end of the stadium. We went in a big group which made it extra fun. But, this was not our first rodeo at Autzen, just first civil war game. Hoping there will be many more years to visit the mighty ducks and their exciting team.
