Confirmed from Clover Island Viewpoint's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
What runners say about Clover Island Viewpoint
“Clover island was very well paved, there wasn’t any broken glass like you would find at Batemans island; very clean area.”
“Absolutely gorgeous place at night and saw awesome lightning storm!”
Clover island gives you a near 360 degree view of the Columbia river. The parking area had plenty of available space to park my car. Clover island was very well paved, there wasn’t any broken glass like you would find at Batemans island; very clean area. I would definitely recommend visiting.
Very nice area to cycle or walk. Quick access to food trucks on columbia drive or follow the path to columbia park for a real adventure. Plenty of tack weed everywhere so keep an eye out.
This place seems to stay cooler than other running routes not as close to the river which makes it great for cardio!
Great place to get your walks. Lots of arts and sight seeing around here.
