What we’re about
Portland Trail Runners is a beginner friendly running group that meets every Saturday morning in and around the Portland area. We love exploring all that Portland has to offer, including the trails of Forest Park, Tryon Creek, the waterfront area, Oaks Bottom Wildlife Refuge, and whatever new trails we find!

"Veronica and I are trying this new fad called, uh, jogging. I believe it's jogging or yogging. It might be a soft j. I'm not sure but apparently you just run for an extended period of time. It's supposed to be wild."

See all- Ridge Yourself of Stress Run 2.0 (feat. Trillium Tranquility + Coffee)Forest Park/Springville Rd. parking area, Portland, OR
Looking to Reset, Rejuvenate, & Relax after the chaos of the week (and 2025 so far)? Leave the stress behind and join us deep in Forest Park for a new route formation ft one of our less frequent, but still charismatic trails: Trillium, along with the ever classic stress-reducing Ridge Trail.
All folks and paces are welcome - run the hills, hike, it's up to you! We'll regroup and take some deep breaths at major intersections to make sure folks are relaxed enough to continue running.
We'll start running around 9:12ish. If you arrive early, please feel free to engage in a dynamic warm-up routine so you don't get a calf cramp. Or a piglet cramp. (hehe)
Where:
Springville Road Trailhead in Forest Park. Just follow the map on Google to the parking area. If it fills up there's also a bit of overflow parking available on Skyline. You are doing OK! Never let stress take away from your hopes and dreams!R-R-Route:

What to bring:
