Top Benchmark in Forest Park, OR - Expedia

Forest park is a 5,100-acre municipal park sitting square in the middle (well, a bit to the left of the middle) of the city of Portland, Oregon. But to call it a municipal park, is like calling the Eiffel Tower an I-beam. The park is essentially a people-friendly urban forest, complete with all the flora and fauna you might expect to find there. There are seventy miles of walking trails, one of them -- the Wildwood Trail is 29 miles long from one end to the other. The park itself is about 8 miles to a side, so there are places at its heart that make you forget you are anywhere near a municipal area.

This shot was taken at about mile 17 of the Wildwood Trail. The blue diamond on the tree in the background is a quarter-mile marker.

As an aside, anyone who watches the popular television series, "Grimm," has undoubtedly heard the name Forest Park in connection with cases throughout the life of the series.

Hotel Eastlund, BW Premier Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was wonderful. The staff, the valet, the room and restaurant were all perfect and reasonable/fair pricing. I absolutely feel like royalty when I stay here. The location is also very desirable being only a few blocks from Moda amd across from the convention center and just a short ride to plenty of night life entertainment. "
