Rocky Butte Natural Area

"A beautiful, open space to see the city from a 360-degree perspective in every direction. The view of the mountains is truly stunning—you can see Mt. Hood, Mt. St. Helens, and more. I especially enjoyed the sunset here; the sky was a mix of orange, pink, light purple, and blue, with the snow on top of the mountains shimmering beautifully. It was absolutely breathtaking."

"It's a cool place close by to go see and photograph the sunrise/sunset which are very pretty. Plus there's a great view of PDX and the surrounding areas. It appears that it's a popular spot, I assume on weekends, for young people to go up there and drink because there's always broken beer bottles and cans left behind. 😠"

"Real nice 360 degree view of the entire Portland and Columbia River gorge! A good thing to do on a sunny day. You can possibly see Mount Hood. The views are a bit far away so don’t expect dramatic photos. I thought there should be a better hiking trail to go up. Plenty of parking space."
