Fanno Creek Trail
Fanno Creek Trail is located downtown behind Tigard City Hall between Hall
Boulevard and Main Street. This natural area along a stretch of Fanno Creek
is a wonderful place to take a quiet walk, enjoy a picnic, view wildlife, and
let the hustle-bustle of urban life melt away. This floodplain area is a grassy,
wooded wetland that provides habitat for a variety of wildlife. Plans are under
consideration for the expansion of this park near the Tigard Library.
The trail through this park is a part of a larger trail network. The Fanno Creek
Greenway Trail has been in planning and implementation for years, and extends in
sections over 15 miles from the Tualatin River to Willamette Park in Portland.
Over half of the trail has been completed, utilizing a mixture of on-street and
off-street routing. The Fanno
Creek Park Master Plan helps fill in a missing
link in this greenway trail, extending the park beyond Hall Boulevard toward
its destination at the Tualatin.
