Rood Bridge Park is an urban park stretching across about 60 acres along the north bank of the Tualatin River. It features walking trails, ponds, wooded sections, a boat launch, tennis courts, and covered picnic areas for visitors.
The park opened in 1999 after the city purchased its initial 35 acres from the Dreiling family in 1992. Additional acreage was acquired from a neighboring wastewater treatment facility to expand the space.

The park is easy to access and offers facilities suitable for various activities and skill levels. Wear appropriate footwear for the trails and plan your visit according to the season and weather conditions.
