Portland’s Forest Park is one of the largest urban forests in the United States, with more than 100 species of native trees, 112 species of birds and more than 60 species of mammals beneath its 5,200-acre canopy. Thousands of human visitors walk, hike, bike and run along Forest Park’s 80 miles of trails, all entirely within the Portland city limits.
And yet it’s so much more than just a city park: Forest Park is where the Oregon Coast Range forest reaches east to welcome the people of Portland and tourists into its uniquely beautiful world: a vast forest ecosystem that stretches from California to Alaska.
The Forest Park Conservancy is a community supported non-profit that protects and restores Forest Park. We engage more than 1,000 volunteers who give tens of thousands of hours and significant financial resources to Forest Park because, quite simply, Forest Park gives so much to us.
Currently, we are leading a 20-year strategy to restore and protect the Greater Forest Park Ecosystem which is a total of 15,000 acres, including Forest Park. This strategy, called the Greater Forest Park Conservation Initiative, will play a significant role ensuring the Portland region is a healthy place to live, work, and play.
We invite you to join us in our continuing work in the park, by becoming a volunteer and making a gift. You can become a part of our efforts to ensure its health for future generations.
