Rock Creek Trail — Attraction in Hillsboro

New Year walk/hike/bike🎉 An unusually sunny day in Beaverton and we brought the kids out for some sunshine and activity. The kids loved riding on the mixed use trail, and we walked behind at a steady pace. Our total out and back from the trailhead turning left was about 3 miles total. The kids would have gone longer if we let them. trail is easy to use and extends north and south for a longer walk. easy parking for unloading the bikes and there is a park there for the kids to play in. to many people - not sure if it was a one off or not because of the Holiday but be prepared for a bit of traffic. not a restroom...

Great for an easy walk, no more than 2 hours to walk the whole thing and that's if your taking your time. Lots of little bridges, the creek itself, beautiful shrubbery and trees; not many flowers though. Great to bike. Great for dog walks. They have a couple little dog parks. Great for little kids because they have parks and playgrounds along the trail. A disc golf course too. There is a bunch of places to enter and exit if you just want to do part of the trail; with free parking in some places. Best trail in Hillsboro but not the best easy trail I've ever been on. Would highly recommend trying it out seeing if...

I recently moved to the area from Northern California. I assumed there would be many smooth trails for road-biking since Oregon seems to be a very outdoorsy state. This trail was extremely disappointing, the road wasn't too road-bike friendly, the trail is short in length, the bridges are incredibly rough on road-bike tires, and you have to stop quite a bit to cross traffic lanes.

I have yet to find a road bike friendly trail that is also greater than 2 miles long. Missing those 12+ mile...
