Portland has so many hidden paths and unpaved alleys. I discovered this path walking my dog. I love the gardens. If you take it uphill and follow the road to the hill crest, when you turn around you have a beautiful view of downtown Portland- and on a clear day you can see as far as the St John's bridge!
This cache is not located on anyone's private property so there is no need to leave the path. There is street parking before and after the path, but no cars allowed on the path.
edit: 8/13/24- this has been replaced many times- please beware of muffles and be sure to return exactly where you found it! Thank you!
