Viewpoint in Powell Butte Nature Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

Powell Butte Nature Park is an extinct volcano. It is a meadow area surrounded by a dense forest. The hills can be mastered very well in the shady forest and you can then hike on the wide meadows. The park is open from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. There is a visitor center with restrooms and parking at SE 162/Powel. Otherwise, the park can also be entered or left via various access gates. The highlight marks a vantage point from which you have a wonderful view into the distance on a clear day. At the vantage point, the most prominent mountains are shown with their distance and height. The hiking trails are very well signposted and maintained. You just have to be careful, as some trails are also open to riders and mountain bikers. Have fun.
