Confirmed from Willamette 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.
Park featuring a playground, picnic areas, and a boat ramp, plus swimming, fishing, and kayaking.
What runners say about Willamette Park
“clean, good place to bring ur kids, bring da family its a nice park clean bathroom.”
“Willamette Park is a beautiful park with an abundance of wildflowers berries, and birds, evan an eagle on occasion.”
From OM Massage, with love and gratitude At dawn we walk where rivers meet, In morning hush, the world feels sweet. The sun peeks out, soft golden light, And shadows dance on waters bright. Reflections hold the trees, the sky, A gentle breeze comes drifting by.
Beautiful park! Lots of trails and great water.I want to kayak one of the many places to put in:) Nice picnic areas
Bigger then I thought! Was able to walk around and not run into people or dogs even when it was busy with people fishing, boating and swimming. I haven’t figured out how but I think you can reserve the canoes that are stationed there. Nice park!
Playground, splash pad, boat launch, sports fields, water access to two Rivers and some nice (but short) trails... What more could you ask for in a park? Oh, also close to the restaurants in the Willamette area.
Trail conditions & character
