Breaking News - FMNP Merges with Forest Park Conservancy

About Us

After 48 years as a non-profit organization, Friends of Marquam Nature Park dissolved in 2023 when it merged with Forest Park Conservancy(FPC). FMNP no longer exists as an independent organization but as part of FPC. FPC works in partnership with Portland Parks & Recreation and others to conserve, maintain and enhance the historical, natural, and recreational resources of both Marquam Nature Park and Forest Park and to educate the public about both parks' unique natural and cultural histories.

Marquam Nature Park is a Portland Parks & Recreation Natural Area. Comprised of over 200 acres of undeveloped land and over 7 miles of hiking trails it is the third largest park in Portland. Minutes from downtown and easily accessible by public transportation, the park provides excellent hiking and running opportunities, an escape from city life, forested scenic views and native habitats that help to enhance the region's air and water quality. Marquam Trail, an important 7 mile link in the 40-Mile Loop trail system as well as being the "Trail" portion of the 4T, runs through the park and provides a connection to other trails and natural areas throughout the metropolitan area.
