Weyerhaeuser-McKenzie Natural Area Park

I don't think this is a nature-friendly trail. Of course, you can see the beautiful riverside, but the road is so close to the road that it's hard to hear the sound of the river and the sound of birds, and I don't think you can enjoy a walk in such a good environment because of the running vehicle. I don't know if I can walk my dog for a while, but there are many trails to walk in the forest, so I don't think it's such a good choice to come here in my personal opinion.

Pretty area with a great bridge view but it's right by a very busy road and there are no bathrooms or trash cans. So I listened to traffic the whole walk and I'm driving home needing to pee with two bags of dog poop in my car. I don't think I'll be going back unless they add some porta potties at the very least. Even the natural area on 126 headed to veneta has a trash can and restroom and it's way more in the boonies than this. Also, not the fault of the area but everyone had off leash big dogs while I was following leash laws, making it a tense walk as I have small dogs and one is reactive. I shouldn't have to worry about my dog getting beaten up in an on leash area when I'm following the law.

Decent little walk along the river. The back half is close to the highway, making it less enjoyable, but there are a couple spots to let your dog drink and take a dip. Occasionally some unhoused folks, but generally safe.

Pretty path to walk and stretch your legs. Pretty flat. Paved and gravel. I brought my lunch and ate by the river

great area for fishing, walking your dogs, or going on a nature walk
