Nearby Accessible Camping
Hi Portland residents!
I’m currently in the midst of planning a trip to visit some friends in the portland/just outside portland area. I’ve never been, and im excited to check it out.
Before one of my friends moved we tried to plan a camping trip but to no avail. It’s super important to them, and I’d love to get a trip planned while im there for a week. I’m trying to find some nearby places and would love some recommendations.
Some limitations are transportation (I won’t have a car and neither will they) and gear/amenities. I have plenty of gear, I’ve been camping my whole life and I can pack for just about any conditions. They don’t have any, however, and we will definitely share mine but would be good to be in a place with a shelter, bivvy, and is not far from the trailhead at all. Even a car camping situation would be nice, just any way to get outdoors!
If anyone has recommendations for locations that can be ubered/bussed to from within the city, is easily accessible, and ideally cheap, that would be fantastic!
