2020 reservations closed until further notice

Reservations for picnic shelters open every year at midnight on Oct. 1 for the following calendar year.

To reserve picnic shelter, please call 503-665-4995.

Three miles of trails let you choose your adventure. Watch for native wildlife such as white-breasted nuthatches, Western bluebirds, orange-crowned warblers and Western gray squirrels. Five plazas make ideal spots to rest, reflect and learn about Graham Oaks’ history, from Kalapuyan tribes who gathered food to the family that farmed the land. Explore beyond the park on the regional Ice Age Tonquin Trail.
