Paradise Park from Timberline Lodge Hike

Overview

Paradise Park is best known for its wildflower displays in July and August, but this hike is a classic mountain trek on many levels. In addition to the mountain vistas and wildflowers, the route passes several waterfalls and offers unique views of the high country south and west of Mount Hood . Though popular, the crowds thin out at the daunting lip of the Zigzag Canyon , and the trail is rarely crowded on weekdays. The trip also has the distinction of beginning at Timberline Lodge , which offers overnight lodging and meals.
