SWTrails is once again participating in PBOT’s Sunday Parkways on May 18. This year there will be a self-led hike connecting all three of the staging areas — Spring Garden Park, Multnomah Village, and Gabriel Park.
Come out, enjoy the event, and take some time to walk between the three street loctations!
Southwest Portland route
The Southwest Portland route will feature a 2-mile multi-modal route and a separate 3.6-mile walking route. Start anywhere on either route and bike, walk, or roll as you explore the four featured stops. Each stop will feature local entertainment, community booths, and vendors, so make sure to plan your day to have time to visit each stop between 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.!
The walking route is 3.6 miles long for pedestrians and loops around the north side of Gabriel Park to the south side of the park and ventures onward to SW Canby Street. The path leads to SW 35th Avenue and crosses the multi-modal route on SW Capitol Highway. The route continues south along SW 35th Avenue, which leads to SW Spring Garden Street, loops through SW Spring Garden Park, and ends on SW Dolph Street. The path loops around Spring Garden Park and provides exposure to one of the many great walking trails SW Portland offers!
The second route is 2 miles long and is multimodal, for people walking, biking, rolling, and strolling. Traveling north to south, it runs from the north end of Gabriel Park and continues on SW Vermont Street to 33rd Place, 33rd Place to Nevada Court, Nevada Court to 33rd Avenue, then entirely on SW Capitol Highway to Dolph Court, finishing up along Dolph Court until it meets Spring Garden Park. Map notes that car traffic is permitted to cross this route using 35th Avenue and crossing at SW Vermont Street, SW Capitol Highway, SW Multnomah Boulevard, or SW Falcon Street.
