Discover Forest Park’s lush trails and historic sites on a guided hike to Pittock Mansion. Enjoy stunning views, local treats, and photo ops.
- Forest Park - From the Lower Macleay Trailhead, we’ll enter the verdant wonderland of Forest Park. The park features over 70 miles of well-maintained trails for hikers, mountain bikers, and horseback riders. You won’t believe you’re still in the city limits!
- Wildwood Trail - Much of our Forest Park hike will be along Portland’s famous 30-mile Wildwood Trail (don’t worry, we’re only walking a few of ‘em). The Wildwood Trail is the longest soft-surface hiking trail within a city in the U.S. - and it’s all ours to enjoy!
- Witch’s Castle - We’ll stop at the Witch’s Castle, a.k.a. Stone House, and learn the storied and tragic history of this stunning landmark with roots dating back to the Oregon Trail.
- Pittock Mansion - Nestled atop Portland’s scenic West Hills, the Pittock Mansion is a beacon of historical grandeur and architectural elegance. We’ll stop at the mansion’s meticulous grounds for a picnic of local goodies, restroom breaks, and Insta-worthy photo ops. The view of Mount Hood (Oregon’s highest peak at 12,500 feet) behind the cityscape is breathtaking!

In this guided tour with a local expert, you’ll hike beneath a grand canopy of majestic Douglas Fir, stunning Bigleaf Maple, whispering Western Hemlock, mighty Oregon White Oak and more. Hikers will enjoy jaw-dropping views of the Cascade mountain range, featuring Mount Hood - Oregon’s highest peak at 12,500 feet.
