Trip Overview
With a Dawn Redwood on premises, a Redwood grove, and the Bristlecone Pine Trail, who wouldn't want to walk the more than 200 acres and 12 miles of trail at the Hoyt Arboretum? The Arboretum was founded in 1928 to conserve endangered species and educate the community. Located just minutes from downtown Portland, come explore 2,300 species of trees and shrubs from six continents. Meet other ecologists interested in natural history, enjoy the bird community of Hoyt, and experience a forest in the Pacific Northwest.
