The popular Fanno Creek Trail includes 4.5 miles of ADA-accessible trail that meanders through Beaverton and Tigard.
Along its length, the Fanno Creek Trail passes through forests, wetlands, and a variety of parks, making it a great destination for walking, running, biking, recreation, and wildlife viewing. As with most regional trail systems, the Fanno Creek Trail is mostly flat, allowing young bike riders a welcoming place to learn or practice riding.Access to the trail can be found at numerous places, such as street crossings and neighborhood connections, as well as several parks.
Vista Brook Park, featuring tennis and basketball courts as well as newer playground structures and a pond overlook, is along the Fanno Creek Trail.
The trail is easily reachable from SW Denney Blvd, and crossing over Highway 217, a parking lot on the north side of the Fanno Creek Greenway. There is a side entrance off of Bel Aire drive, at the bottom of Clifford Street, only a 5 minute walk.
Further south at SW Hall Blvd., where recently a lighted pedestrian crosswalk was installed, the trail continues through Greenway Park, which has many playgrounds, basketball courts, and a disc golf course.
Koll Center Wetlands Natural Area is next to Greenway Park, a destination for many waterfowl and native turtles.
Wildlife opportunities abound along the Fanno Creek Trail, from native Pacific tree frogs in wetlands to active beavers in the creek. Red-tailed Hawks can be seen overhead as they search for prey, while Great Blue Herons and Great Egrets are a common sight at Koll Center Wetlands.
THPRD’s Natural & Trails Department regularly restores and cleans up natural area sites along the trail, with volunteers participating in invasive species removal, native planting and work to fix streambank erosion.

This serene wooded 62 acre sanctuary features lush botanical gardens. It has 2 levels and the $5 admission to go up the elevator is worth it to absorb the breathtaking view. Christmas time is especially spectacular, the grounds are riddled with lights throughout the bushes and trees. There are also ongoing carolers from all over the city.
