Confirmed from Old Canemah Park'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.
Little spot with river views, plus a playground and picnic tables.

“Beautiful views, a little playground for the kids, well kept area with picnic benches and some shade.”
“Nice, secluded, very quiet park.”
We love this spot. It is secluded and peaceful. It has great picnic tables with river views. Sunny and shady spots. It has paved paths,you can ride scooters on. Hard to find but worth it. It has a ample parking lot.
Great trails for walking or biking. Never very crowded and there is a play structure for kids. Also a decent sized basketball court that is well maintained. It is required that u have ur dog on a leash, but it honestly don't matter. There is no security or cameras
A very relaxing short hike recommend anyone who is wanting to get out for just a little bit and get a breath of fresh air in the Oregon City area
Beautiful views of the river and hills! Fun place to explore and walk around.
