Forest Park All Trails Challenge
Healthy You – Healthy Forest – Healthy Community
The popular All Trails Challenge is back for 2009!
THE BASICS: The All Trails Challenge is a unique opportunity to improve your health, appreciate why Forest Park’s health is so important to our region, and contribute to the health of your community! The All Trails Challenge is a unique opportunity to improve your health, appreciate why Forest Park’s health is so important to our region, and contribute to the health of your community all the while challenging you to hike and/or bike the 70 miles of trails in Forest Park by December 31st.
Within steps of entering Forest Park, you are immediately taken to a place which offers miles and miles of amazing trails and remarkable ecological haven just minutes from downtown Portland. The All-Trails Challenge (ATC) is an outreach by the Forest Park Conservancy to encourage walkers and runners to cover 70+ miles and more than 11,000 feet cumulative elevation gain of selected trails and roads in Forest Park. We hope that it will increase your awareness and knowledge of the park’s many trails, features, and entrance points; that it will help you set goals for increased physical activity; and most importantly, that it will raise your awareness and love of this incomparable city park.
