Drive to the Rose Garden - finding the gardens from the MAX, bus or on foot can prove a challenge. Take a picnic and enjoy the view
Beautiful garden! Well worth a day trip. Bring a lunch and have a picnic.
Free. Take a picnic and have a day!
Nice place for a picnic
Walking and hiking. Great picnic spots.
Remember to reserve picnic area first with Portland parks & rec
FAVORITE. This is like wonderland in a city park. The trees are enormous -- this park reminds me that I'm small -- and apparently you can watch Star Trek reenactment rehearsals here too.
Really nice in Autumn when the leaves turn but great for picnics when it's warm as well.
Great place for a walk or a picnic

Great place for a picnic, nice views.
What a great park in the area. View are spectacular! Best place to walk and just enjoy the beauty of nature. Be just prepare because it doesn’t have any bathrooms in the area.
My dog loves this park. Very big and spread out, easy to find a quiet semi-private picnic spot.
Excellent slides and swings, ample picnic tables, charming stream with bridges and hanging trees, surprisingly cruisy men's room. 7.9/10.
Excellent destination for the goose shit connoisseur, with an amazing and unavoidable variety of avian excrement.
massive bicycle parking area and lots of sunny picnic tables. pinball. beer.
The Best Taproom in Portland. Get some tacos next door and enjoy with a great draft at the picnic tables outside.
The atmosphere is killer! Plenty of picnic tables and high top tables. Great if you're looking for that outdoor patio feel. Beer selection is endless, too.
Rose Gardens, Pools, Baseball Diamonds, Tennis Courts, Play grounds, Splash pads, Picnic spots, Awesome summertime fun!
Amazingly fragrant and well kept rare gem of a park.
Beautiful rose garden and walking trail around the perimeter of the park.
Impressive architecture under the bridge span - outside of that, a nice place for a walk or picnic.
Love this place!! Great atmosphere here, everyone is friendly
This park sits underneath the old green St. Johns bridge, and the way the bridge is built from underneath gives it the illusion that you're in a large cathedral building. Beautiful
Have a picnic here overlooking the skyline!
Skip the $9 your of the inside, the real beauty is the view from outside. Bring a picnic and spread out a blanket on the lawn
Cool place to spend a little time - maybe pack a picnic lunch and enjoy the view.
Fantastic park with great views! Take a different look at Portland and watch the planes land on the airport. Take your binoculars and some picnic! :)
View is worth 10 minutes drive up the mountain. Parking may be a challenge.
Best view in Portland!
This park has become very popular. It has play structures, ball fields, dog run, a couple covered picnic tables and restrooms.
Nice little-kids play structure alongside big-kids area.
See the swifts in September or all year round in On The Wing at swiftsmovie.com
Family friendly atmosphere with a pool, snow cones, and a large playground structure. There are also soccer sized fields and a woodsy area with picnic tables.
Look out for the crazy Pomeranian :-)
A huge park with lots to do including great picnic spots.
Love the volleyball sand court and the space to spread out and relax nice community feel.
I love Gabriel Park super clean and like everyone said great for winter as much as summer :)
Bring a picnic lunch and eat on the grass!
Great mid-level zoo. Very natural feel. Great variety of animals. Make a visit when I'm Portland.
All the silly animals! Oh wait that's us oops
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
