This is my preferred place to park when I ride in Portland. Easy access to the waterfront paths and to the Springwater trail. There are always people walking their dogs, kayaking, swimming and biking when I go. Beautiful view of the Sellwood bridge and river.

Love this park, but it gets very busy on warm days. The off-leash area is huge and dogs have fun playing in the water. The trails are beautiful and maintained. Good place to have a family day, or take a walk. The restrooms were surprisingly clean and there's a beautiful tribute to overdose on the trail parallel to the water.

Wonder grassy area next to the water. Plenty of bank access and beach space. Parking fills quickly so get there early. Great place for a picnic, float and pet friendly.

Trust me, you will never have a bad day visiting this beautiful park. Lots of spaces to walk, run and chill. I love the small beach/lake access view. The only minor is bathroom was not clean and had too many trashes nearby

Sellwood riverfront park is the best place for a picnic or swim! The doc is a great place for diving, or jumping in. The grass is close enough to the water to have a picnic. And it’s super dog friendly!
