Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Molalla River State Park adventure.
Peaceful park at the confluence of three rivers to enjoy nature and let your pups run free.
Situated at the confluence of the Molalla, Willamette, and Pudding rivers, this scenic day-use park lets you slow down and enjoy being outdoors. A boat ramp and easy river access lets boaters, paddlers, swimmers, and anglers enjoy the water. Or cross the river with the Canby Ferry, just downstream. Several hiking trails wind along the river and around ponds popular with blue herons, waterfowl and other wildlife. Afterwards, relax, enjoy a picnic, or play games on the gently sloping and partially shaded grassy fields, or let your pup run off leash in a spacious unfenced area. Camping is not permitted at the park, but options are available nearby.
Peak season at the park is from May to September, though the park doesn’t usually get too crowded. During the wet season, low-lying trails near the river confluence are prone to flooding. Check the weather before finalizing plans. Visit in the summer when blackberries are ripe for a sweet treat. Winter is a good time to see birds, especially waterfowl.
