But what about the city itself? With its spacious Washington Park and hilly Forest Park, Portland is an outdoor eldorado, where you can combine urban explorations and discover wooded trails in one day without even leaving the inner city limits. The 4T Trail is a great opportunity to get to know the city and enjoy nature at the same time. For this self-guided urban hike you don&#8217;t even require a car as all locations are well connected by public transport. So the only things you need to bring along are your hiking boots, some water and snacks for the way and 5 USD to pay for your <a href=\"https:\/\/trimet.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Trimet ticket<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"1536\"  height=\"1920\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"4T Trail Portland\"  data-id=\"26004\"  class=\"wp-image-26004 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-28.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-28.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-28-800x1000.jpg 800w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-28-1160x1450.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-28-320x400.jpg 320w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-28-560x700.jpg 560w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-28-1320x1650.jpg 1320w\" ><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"1536\"  height=\"1920\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"4T Trail Portland\"  data-id=\"25952\"  class=\"wp-image-25952 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-14.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-14.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-14-800x1000.jpg 800w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-14-1160x1450.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-14-320x400.jpg 320w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-14-560x700.jpg 560w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-14-1320x1650.jpg 1320w\" ><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_1 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Inhaltsverzeichnis | Table of Contents<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69e4ca1608a80\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #00a499;color:#00a499\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #00a499;color:#00a499\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69e4ca1608a80\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/en\/america\/usa\/oregon\/4t-trail-portland\/#train-trail-tram-trolley-%e2%80%93-the-4t%c2%b4s-of-portland%c2%b4s-4t-trails\" >Train, Trail, Tram &amp;

So the 4T Trail is great for a half day activity. Just have an eye on the schedule of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gobytram.com\/hours-fare\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Portland Aerial Tram<\/a>. Weekdays it operates until 9.30pm, but on the weekends only until 5pm. Be aware that the tram only opens on Sunday during summer hours. So before you go, you better check the timetable to make sure you don\u00b4t miss the tram-experience to get back down into the city, especially on a weekend. The tram operates load-n-go and usually departs every 5 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"1160\"  height=\"773\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Portland Marquam Nature Park\"  class=\"wp-image-25972 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-24-1160x773.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-24-1160x773.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-24-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-24-320x213.jpg 320w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-24-560x373.jpg 560w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-24.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-24-1320x880.jpg 1320w\" ><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"1160\"  height=\"870\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"4T Trail, Portland, signs and waypoints\"  class=\"wp-image-25936 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-6-1160x870.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-6-1160x870.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-6-320x240.jpg 320w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-6-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-6-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-6-560x420.jpg 560w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-6.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-6-1320x990.jpg 1320w\" ><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"costs\"><\/span>Costs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A ticket for riding the Aerial Tram up to Oregon Health &amp; Science University will cost you 5,10 USD in cash as long as you aren\u00b4t a student or staff of OHSU. Going down is free of charge for everyone. In fact the Aerial Tram is operated by the OHSU to bring primarily staff, patients and visitors up to the university and health clinic. But as the tram is part of Portland\u00b4s public transport system, it is open to the public as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you follow the route the way I described it above and only take the Aerial tram downhill, the whole tour will only cost you 5 US Dollars for the a <a href=\"https:\/\/trimet.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Trimet day-ticket<\/a> of Portland\u00b4s public transportation system, which you can use for the busses, the lightrail Max and the streetcar. So the 4T Trail is not only a great opportunity to combine a hike with exploring the city. It is sustainable and affordable as well! So what are you waiting for? Get your hiking boots on and follow the 4T signs!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"1160\"  height=\"870\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Map and waypoints 4T Trail, Portland\"  class=\"wp-image-25962 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-19-1160x870.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-19-1160x870.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-19-320x240.jpg 320w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-19-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-19-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-19-560x420.jpg 560w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-19.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/USA_Portland_4T-Trail-19-1320x990.jpg 1320w\" ><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">***<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>QUESTIONS &amp; COMMENTS?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Have you ever been to <a href=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/en\/category\/america\/usa\/oregon\/\">Oregon<\/a> and explored <a href=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/en\/category\/america\/usa\/oregon\/portland\/\">Portland<\/a>? <strong>Leave me a comment! <\/strong>Do you like the article, or still have any suggestions, feedback or recommendations?
