Mount Tabor Park, Urban park in Portland, US
Mount Tabor Park covers 191 acres of land rising 636 feet above Portland, featuring walking trails, reservoirs, and recreational facilities for outdoor activities.
The park, established in 1909, incorporates four open reservoirs built between 1894 and 1911 on its slopes to supply water to Portland residents.
The PDX Adult Soapbox Derby attracts thousands of spectators annually in August, racing on a designated course constructed in 1956 within the park.
Visitors can access Mount Tabor Park daily from 5 AM to midnight through multiple entry points near Southeast Division Street and Southeast 60th Avenue.
The entire park sits atop an extinct volcanic cinder cone, with paths made from volcanic materials discovered during its initial construction phase.
