Park Forest

Forest Park is a city park in Portland, one of the largest in the country. On an area of more than 2060 hectares, surrounded by a huge biological diversity, recreational routes with a total length of more than 100 kilometers are located.

Formed in the 1860s and formally opened in 1948, the park ranks 19th in size in the United States. Its territory is home to more than 112 species of birds, 62 species of mammals, as well as many different plant species. Among the representatives of the fauna there are deer, lynx, gophers, squirrels, mice and salamanders.

No less impressive is the variety of birds - different types of woodpeckers, owls and swans, bats, thrushes and others. Due to the large amount of precipitation, the park is especially rich in vegetation. Here grows maple, poplar, fern, alder, thistle, ivy, blackberries and a huge variety of conifers.
