Lewis and Clark State Recreation Site, State park at Sandy River confluence, Multnomah County, United States
The recreation site contains grassy areas with trees near the Sandy River, offering spaces for swimming and picnicking along the riverbank.
The land was donated to Oregon state by Multnomah County in 1936, with additional parcels acquired from private owners through 1961.
The park commemorates the Lewis and Clark Expedition, which documented the Sandy River and its challenging sandbar on November 3, 1805.
The park provides a boat launch, life jacket loaner station, and designated swimming areas, with strict requirements for wearing life jackets during water activities.
Broughton's Bluff, rising 160 feet, marks the geological boundary between the Cascade Mountain Range and Willamette Valley, offering year-round climbing opportunities.
