If you’re looking for a simple weekend outing, Portland really shows off this time of year. Between fresh green trails, spring flowers, and the first roses starting to wake up, it’s a pretty great month to get outside.
Three spots worth adding to your list: Hoyt Arboretum for a leafy walk, Portland Japanese Garden for spring blooms, and the International Rose Test Garden later in the month when rose season starts to kick in.
No big road trip required: just a few beautiful places to enjoy what makes Portland feel especially Portland this time of year!
