Tigard Walks!

Calling All Walkers
Do you know of a route or particularly nice area of the city to suggest for a group walk? As we move into 2021, we intend to feature different parts of the city and share new and interesting places to walk that residents might not know about. Email me... I'd love to get your suggestions!

Middle of Millen Drive Parade: July 4, 2015 | Map
Thanks to all the Tigard walkers that came out to stroll the Millen Drive neighborhood on a blistering-hot Independence Day! It was an amazing crowd that assembled for this year’s parade and I’m glad you could join the fun.

Metzger Area Loop: June 13, 2015 | Map
This was a great walk in the northern part of Tigard. Even I discovered new trails and beautiful places (including the lovely Metzger Park).

Tigard Main Street Art Walk: May 2, 2015 | Map
Thank you art lovers and Tigard Walkers for coming out to kick-off the downtown celebration of art that runs until May 15. We had perfect walking weather and a great turnout to admire art and new features that welcome visitors to Main Street.

Cook Park through Summerfield: April 18, 2015 | Map
What a beautiful day it was! Most fun moment? Seeing a neighbor and his daughter walking their cat (Puma) on a leash. Finn (the dalmation) was so confused he just sat down and looked at them while I was taking pics!

Fowler Creek Trail: March 21, 2015 | Map
This was one of the best walks I’ve had! What a great group — a gamut of ages and abilities. The flower seeds were a great hit – everyone was happy to see springtime arrive. I enjoyed hearing folks trade gardening tips & secrets for beautiful flower gardens. The weather was perfect for walking and the rain held off until the last person arrived back at the starting point.

Summerlake Park: February 14, 2015 | Map
Tigard residents came out to combine two things that are good for their hearts: walking and the great outdoors! There were two different walks to choose from, a .7-mile loop around the lake or a 1.6-mile jaunt through the Summerlake neighborhood.

Cook Park: January 1, 2015 | Map
If you were able to join us for the January 1st walk through Cook Park, I applaud your resistance to cold! We had 25 walkers participate, with a choice of two courses. The day was beautiful, cold and sunny! I’m sure it’s a good omen for the coming year of walks. What a great way to support the city’s strategic plan goal: To make Tigard the most walkable city in the northwest where people of all ages and abilities enjoy healthy and interconnected lives.

Walk More... Connect More

Walking is one of the best ways to connect with others. There never seems to be enough time to enjoy friends and family. By walking with them, we get to catch up and refresh our minds, and the physical benefits add up, too. Invite a friend or your partner for an after-dinner walk, take care of weekend errands with your family on foot, or invite neighbors to join Tigard Walks—a very casual walking group! Along the way you’ll build strong bonds and memories.
