Whitaker Ponds Nature Park Trails
Westside Trail
The Westside Trail is a regional, multi-use path that will eventually stretch from the Willamette River south to the Tualatin River. The trail makes a great destination for walking or bicycling, wildlife watching, or just exploring.
While some of it is still in the planning stages, most of the trail is complete from Portland Community College Rock Creek Campus to the city of Tigard. The segment through Beaverton will be completed in sections.
