The Willamette Mission Trail winds through meadows that roll between woods and marshes. The famed cottonwood tree and the historic Willamette Mission are accessible via the trail. Along the trail, native and non-native flora can be seen, including trailing blackberry, poison oak, Himalayan blackberry, and reed canarygrass. We can stop in one of the several resting spots that have a picnic table for lunch or a snack (depending on weather).
