If you’re looking for a way to get outside and enjoy the fresh air with your family in Portland, consider going on a hike! The Portland area is home to some of the most beautiful trails in the country! There’s a trail for every skill level but I’m going to share five hikes that are great for families. So lace up your boots, grab a picnic lunch, and get ready for adventure<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Silver Falls State Park<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you’re looking for a day hike that’s exciting for the whole family, then head to Silver Falls State Park<\/a>. This park is home to ten different waterfalls, and the trails range from easy to difficult. To make it easier but with the highest reward, just do the upper loop! Park at North Falls Trailhead (get there early or parking will be full!!) and hike the upper loop (but maybe detour slightly to get in a few more waterfalls). You get to see most of the park’s waterfalls on this trail and it’s an easy loop. Then you can always drive down to the south falls and quickly check that out if you don’t want to miss it. It’s right next to the parking lot. Make sure to wear good hiking shoes that won’t slip because the trail is going to be wet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
