Cooper Mountain Nature Park
Overlooking the Tualatin River Valley, the Cooper Mountain Nature Park is located on the edge of Beaverton. This 230-acre park offers visitors 3½ miles of trails traversing the park and passing through each of its distinct habitats – from conifer forest to prairie and oak woodlands. Visitors are rewarded with grand views of the Chehalem Mountains, close-up looks at Oregon white oaks, and a small prairie that has sat relatively undisturbed for hundreds of years. The park also features a nature play area for children.
Portland Metro and Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District work in partnership to manage Cooper Mountain Nature Park. Together the two agencies continue habitat restoration and wildlife monitoring, maintain hiking trails and the Nature House, and provide environmental education programs to visitors of all ages. Pets, including dogs, are not allowed in the park or the parking lot area.
