Oaks Bottom Wildlife Refuge

"So beautiful and peaceful, a great break from the city in the middle of the city. There is a main path that is paved and then a couple trails that go off the paved path that are not paved and consist of dirt, rocks, roots, and wooden boardwalks, sometimes fairly narrow. A little incline in a few areas, but mostly flat."

"Lovely park area with gorgeous views and excellent walks right in the Sellwood area. The tracks are lovely, with some only for walking and some combined cycle and walking trails. Plenty of wildlife to see and gorgeous views. The Tadpole pond is rather neat! Would definitely be suitable for taking kids, and is very dog friendly (on a leash!) Wonderful reserve with short and long walks."

"Oaks bottom wildlife refuge is a gem nestled in the bottom of a wonderful wetland! If you have the time, it's about a 3 mi loop to walk all the way around. In the spring and fall when the rains are around. Be sure to take some extra shoes because it can get a bit damp on the far side of the trail. Keep your eyes peeled for beaver, numerous waterfowl, and in the spring. It's always fun to look for the tadpoles when you're out walking. If you're careful, you will can catch a glimpse of the local deer that also populate the oaks bottom wildlife refuge. Don't let them startle you as you will most "
