Meike BradleyJune 23, 2015Great place to take a cozy blanket and to sit right down at the water in the late evening. You'll get a very beautiful and aromatic skyline of Portland and the reflections in the water.- Bin YangOctober 8, 2016Great running/biking route taking you right along the waterfront; you can continue further south along the spring water corridor route as well. Beautiful!
GNTLMNFebruary 19, 2014Take a stroll along the Willamette River. Cross over the Morrison Bridge and the Steel Bridge and you have a 2.75 mile loop. On Saturday and Sunday, there's "Saturday Market".
Peter HemingwayApril 11, 2013Road cyclists need to remember to SHARE THE TRAIL. It's not a race course, it was built as a WALKING TRAIL. Yield to slower traffic, don't jet past them causing casual cyclists on a stroll to wreck.
Ben HortenJune 1, 2015Awesome place for a bike ride on a sunny afternoon in Portland. An absolute must do when the weather permits.
Cristina SchmittJanuary 27, 2016I mostly love jogging the SW waterfront loop because I don't have to worry about cars and I enjoy the river even if it is dirty.
Beautiful water feature. A lovely place to sit and have lunch or to do leaf-boat races.
Alex BrehmJanuary 16, 2014The characters of Portlandia walk along the Esplanade as they sing the opening song "The Dream of the 90s" in Portlandia S1 E1.
jeff reuterAugust 17, 2013Lots of things going on the Esplanade last night, pirates, bikes, band on a barge, Ferris wheel on a barge.
- Alan CordovaMay 31, 2011In case you were wondering, this is where the "Dream of the '90s" music video for "Portlandia" was filmed. Read more
While walking, watch out for bicycles moving at high speeds up and down the floating ramps.
