Lacamas Park

"Winter has arrived here and its beauty is shining! Great family park. Nice walking trails. Dog friendly. Bike friendly. Several options to meet your exercise needs. Clean, plenty of parking. Picnic tables and play area."

"It was absolutely a beautiful and romantic Park with many challenging, interconnected trails and hikes. There was a nice small dam inside this park. I went on a rainy day so the hike was muddy and hard to track. I hope I can visit it on a nice sunny summer day"

"My wife originally discovered Round Lake as a kayaking destination, and it has evolved (for us) into a place for easy hikes and picnicking. With every visit, we've explored paths that we haven't been on before. Trail maps with "you are here" are placed at critical spots throughout the park, though we also find that taking a picture of one can help confirm that we're heading the right way. The main parking lot near the northwest corner of the lake is on the small side. There is additional parking north of the lake, down the street where the path around Round Lake takes you. The main paths are wide, smooth, and well maintained, which I find to be a huge benefit. When I'm hiking, and have to constantly be looking at my feet, watching out for roots and loose rocks, I don't get to enjoy my surroundings much at all. If you decide to visit the waterfalls in the park, you will find secondary trails that can be much steeper and narrower. The cascading destinations are worth the extra work."

"Pretty nice spot to get in a 4 mile hike right next to home. Picnic spots in the north, trails in the south. Only bathroom is near the parking lot. Good for mushroom hunting / observing, get your iNaturalist app out."

"Beautiful place to take your family and relax! Hiking trails are many and interconnected, some are easy and some are moderately challenging. The lake is perfect for kayaking having a dip on a hot day, and there are plenty of picnic tables with grills for gatherings."
