Maricara Natural Area Park
In fall 2010, 1,500 feet of new natural-surface trails and 2,600 feet of improved trails were opened. Located in a residential neighborhood, the site includes a wetland, protected stream, important native plant species, and an older second-growth forest. Known as “The Jewel” of southwest Portland, this park has abundant wildflowers every spring.
