“enriching the lives of citizens!”
This 59-acre community park provides a vast range of recreation opportunities for visitors. Paved paths lead the way through the different developed and natural areas of the park. Soft-surface paths lead further into wetland and wooded areas around the Tualatin River. Benches and picnic tables can be found throughout the park. The playground, tennis courts, rhododendron garden, several ponds and large lawn areas provide a wide range of options for play and relaxation. The park can be accessed on the west side for parking and also off of SE River Road on the north side of the park. Accessible restrooms and several drinking fountains are available.
Rood Bridge Park is a 61-ac complex of riparian woods with creek and Tualatin River access. Watch and listen for Pileated Woodpecker, and Black-throated Gray and Orange-crowned Warblers in spring. Green Heron, Hooded Merganser, and Wood Duck may be seen around and on the ponds. In winter watch and listen for Golden and Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Winter Wren, and Brown Creeper. From Hwy 8 (SE Tualatin Valley Hwy) at SE 10th Ave in downtown Hillsboro, go SE 1 mi to 24th Ave and turn R. Go 0.2 mi SW and turn L on SE River Rd. Go 0.4 mi and turn R on Rood Bridge Rd. Follow for 0.6 mi to park entrance on L. Transit: The park is a 1.2 mi walk from TriMet Bus 57 stop at SE Tualatin Valley Hwy and 24th Ave.
Unfortunately there is no splash pad like the first picture but there are big, open grassy spaces, covered picnic areas, a play structure, two ponds and one creek, tennis courts and plenty of walking paths.
