Confirmed from Cook Park Greenbelt'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.

★★★★★ — Peter , Jul 2021

Great place to walk. Lovely large trees near the Tualatin River. Paved path and natural trails.

★★★★★ — Dana , Sep 2021

Some days the air is crisp, yet the temperature is blistering cold, but for oregonians. If it's blue skies and sunshine, and no flipping rain, we're outside taking that walk. Enjoying nature.

★★★★★ — Bob , Jan 2025

What a fantastic park. If you want to go out and get away from the chaos of the city cook Park is definitely a destination you should check out. There are trails that travel along the river that anyone can walk. That goes for people with disability's as well.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
