Nadaka Nature Park & Garden

Great little park with a few trails and a play area for kids a nice picnic area and a community garden next door

This is a wonderful park! Walking the many quiet, winding paths through the lush forest, it’s easy to forget that you’re in the city. It’s a great place to take young kids and dogs, with a sweet little playground and a couple of small, open fields.

The play structure is very unique here. Pretty usable for adults also.

Good place, big gravel parking lot. Picnic tables and a bathroom that appears to be open. Lott of family's during the day, night time I have seen a few scetchy people but nothing to bad.

I love the natural layout and pieces placed in the park. My kids love creating their own games and all the "structures" are open for creative uses. The trail through the wooded area is short but is a great way to begin exploring nature. I hope this park continues to get much love and to be cared for by our community.

This is a relatively small nature park. There is a playground next to Glisan, with the nature park behind it.

There are two main trails that wander off for a couple of blocks and let you out into the neighborhood. I wasn't able to explore it fully, but it's a nice little walk from what I did see.

Park in the church lot, directly west of the playground. Park next to the fence, the entry to the park is by Glisan, *not* in the back corner.

Me and my kids LOVE this park. We go here when we are looking to relieve our senses. It's very minimal, where kids can go use their imaginations and play in the woods! There is a nature trail that we walk every time we come. Nice little park, never crowded in our experiences. :)

The area of the park that I visited this time was the community garden. I was helping a fellow gardener clear her garden beds for the fall. The playground at this park looks like a lot of fun and the nature paths toward the back of the park are nice as well. That’s a little birds and squirrels run aground tweeting and chittering.

This is a great Park as it says in the name it is a nature Park so it has a bunch of wood and different natural things in the play area for kids to play on and climb ...it also has a sand area that has a water feature that is turned on during the summer that the kids can pump water out of that flows into the sand pit. Definitely recommend this to others. Both of my sons love this park😁 the sandpit is the main attraction and the cool round/disc swing. There is also a covered area with picnic tables as well and a community garden

Clean park with new play equipment and a nice sand pit with a pump action water faucet for the kids. There is a community garden here as well.

Beautiful park lots of trees, very spacious, cool and different wooden play structure for the kids. Lots of space to run around. I'm writing this in June 2020 during the virus, I brought my kids twice to this park, not many people around. It's a great place for them to run around without coming into close contact.

A smallish quiet park with anti crime cameras setup, makes it feel just a bit safer in this part of Portland. Park in the church lot adjacent to it.

My family and I adore this place. The nature trail is always quiet, and is absolutely beautiful. I love walking through it; it feels nicely tucked away from the road, so you can just enjoy the pretty scenery around you. I go here often with my dogs, and I think this is a fantastic spot if you live around Gresham. If you want a nice, pretty place to hang out for an afternoon, Nadaka can't be beat.

A nice park to take a walk, have a birthday party or even just a nice spot to relax.

I come here often as I'd rather listen to birds bickering than the human alternative. Its so peaceful. Feels safe due to cameras throughout the place. Tho more are needed in the parking areas. And the bathroom is usually clean. Tho sometimes....

Lovely little park! It has connections to the Nadaka tribe and that I love taking the time to walk around here with my dog or alone. I haven't used the garden portion, though the people who do really take good care of their plants.

Small intimate park has a trail. Would be better if they had better playground equipment

Saw no homeless and no needles. This was a very quiet and nice walk with our dog. Only garbage we saw was a matress and box spring next to the garden, neatly stacked.

Love this park, fun for the whole family. Build sandcastles go hiking play in the fountain pre teen friendly play structure and access to covered picnic tables and bbq for outdoor birthday or party events. Special events are always a blast. Community gardening is also available if interested.

I love this park. There is a small loop through the woods, a huge sand area. At night in the clearing the bunnies come out. Not open after dark though. In the NW corner of the park is Turtle rock. You can Google the park for the history.
