Luckiamute Landing State Natural Area

My favorite walk with my dog! Dogs can be off leash except during nesting season, on leash April - September. A 2.5 mile loop trail with informative interpretational signs, diverse foliage, lots of hawks, eagles, and songbirds. A short cutoff takes you directly to the river and a pleasant boat campsite and beach. I plan to paddle there this summer.

After the rains, we had a number of little lakes on the trail. But it was warm and they were shallow enough to wade through, if you don't mind getting your feet wet. I had not seen high water like this in the last 10 years!

This is a fantastic outdoor trail with tons of nature along the way. It's not a woodland trail but more of an open area trail with a few ponds along the way. Perfect for kids in animals, however leashes are required for dogs during certain times. My kids loved that there was a turtle habitat on part of the pond, however you cannot explore it as it's prohibited access.

This is a beautiful place..it is incredibly peaceful hard to describe how it makes you feel when spending time here.
It's also a great place to take your dog for a walk. My dog wants to come here every day.

Beautiful area! Please be aware that this is a HUNTING area. I see many people out walking their dog or bird watching that seem to be bothered by the occasional shot being fired.
I've included maps for ODFW hunting access and the Luckiamute Landing State map. The orange areas on the Luckiamute Landing map indicate Safe Zones (no hunting).

We always enjoy taking our dogs there for a walk. Missed seeing the turtles sitting on the log at the north end of the lake...we always just call the place 'The Turtle Pond" for short. They have always provided a log for the turtles to climb up on at the north end of the lake... not sure if they're working on that?

Awesome place to go out of the city for a few hours for a short hike

Love this beautiful place. Meet a friend for a photo shoot and it was great! The dogs loved it also. Nice little walk.

Perfect trail for walking dog and lovely small lake to enjoy.
