DirectionsHabitat and Birds
This park is located along the Willamette River with riparian habitats that provided breeding habitat for Red-eyed Vireo in the past – none have been reported since about 2020. There is a bike path that goes in a large loop, along the river downstream to Dorris Ranch Park and back along the Mill Race Path and the Booth Kelly ponds.
