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
Free. Take a picnic and have a day!
Beautiful flowers and no charge to get in! Would be a great place to have a romantic picnic or to sit on a bench and read a good book. And I love the Shakespeare garden!
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.
Beautiful for a walk or a picnic
Great place for a picnic, nice views.
Great place for an afternoon stroll. Chill in the big, calm lawn areas for a nice dose of nature.
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
Beautiful place to go to and ground and center <3
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!
Beautiful rose garden and walking trail around the perimeter of the park.
The fountain is a great place to hang out, any time of the day.
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.
Impressive architecture under the bridge span - outside of that, a nice place for a walk or picnic.
Very nice park to relax with a perfect view of the bridge.
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! :)
The view is worth the hike up!
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.
Tennis courts in the back, next to a brand spanking new soccer field. Courts can get crowded after five, so go before then!
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 :-)
Has a few picnic tables, a playground, green grass for lounging, and field for kids’ soccer. Not big enough for running around and the view is heavily obstructed by trees.
Love this place! Since I was a kid, later 60s, been here.
Watch out for stray drones.
A huge park with lots to do including great picnic spots.
Great trails, also tennis and softball courts. Has also many uphill roads to increase the run effort
I love Gabriel Park super clean and like everyone said great for winter as much as summer :)
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
