Paradise Park
This is a classic Portland, Oregon hike. It is quite strenuous due to distance and elevation gain, but it is so worth it. It is called Paradise Park for a reason. Alpine meadows, expansive views of Mt Hood and the surrounding cascades, wildflower filled meadows, glacier carved canyons, waterfalls and several clear water springs and creeks. This hike is one of those must-do when you are near Portland, Oregon.
