The guide
Where exactly
Easily reached via TriMet's Westside Light Rail. Get off at the Merlo Road/158th Station. Turn left, cross the tracks and make a left turn onto the asphalt path. This is the Oak Trail. It will lead you into the Park and to the Interpretive Center (about 3/4 of a mile away). From Hwy. 217 or TV Hwy. Take Oregon 8/Canyon Rd/Tualatin Valley (TV) Hwy. approximately 2 miles west. SW Millikan Blvd. is on the north side, between SW Murray and SW 170th. Go north on 160th, which becomes Millikan Blvd. The Park is approximately 1/2 mile from the intersection on your left. If you pass a set of train tracks, you have gone too far. From Hwy. 26 or Murray Blvd. From Hwy. 26, go south on Murray for approximately 1.5 miles. From Murray, go west on SW Millikan Way, which becomes SW Millikan Blvd. The Interpretive Center is approximately 3/4 mile from the intersection. Cross street: Millikan Blvd & 170th
Cruisiest spot: The trails that are not paved are the best. Secluded spots off of Ponderosa Loop and Big Fir Trails can be quiet and great for groups.
When to go
Dawn to dusk unless posted. Best times: Evenings and weekends unless you can find someone to meet during the day.
Sunset today · Sunrise tomorrow
Etiquette
Be discreet. This is a neighborhood park in the suburbs. If you plan on meeting someone here that is better than loitering all around the area.
Nudity: If you go nude, do it a very secluded spot where no one on the trails can see you.
Safety
Don't destroy the park by littering or killing animals and plants. Be mindful of children that may be around.
