Friday Five: Local Hikes Under 5 Miles
With the weather warming up, flowers blooming, and green everywhere you look, it’s time to head outdoors and take in one of the many fantastic hiking opportunities in and around Portland.
Explore the many beautiful Gorge waterfalls or check out the fantastic parks in the city – you can’t go wrong. Bring a water bottle, a good pair of hiking shoes, and occasionally a swimsuit in order to take full advantage of Portland’s increasingly frequent sunny days.
These five short hikes are great for anyone getting out to stretch their legs and take in the scenery of the beautiful Northwest.
