Imagine a 10-mile trail …
from the east end of the Steel Bridge to the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia Rivers. The npGREENWAY is a growing trail system linking North Portland neighborhoods with the Willamette River for recreation and access to jobs.
This is a long-term project with many components supported by volunteers, sponsors, neighborhood organizations, local government and private business.
The entire North Portland Greenway trail is divided into 5 segments, each with it’s own challenges. Here is a table of the segments: npGreenwayTrailSegments

npGreenway Awarded NPS Grant
On June 1, 2021, the National Park Service (NPS), Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance (RTCA) Program notified the npGreenway Board that npGreenway has received a National Parks Service Grant. The grant will provide the organization with technical assistance from the National Park Service to strengthen our organization’s advocacy impact with Public Agencies to be more successful in furthering the construction of the North Portland Greenway Trail. In addition, the NFS grant will provide expertise in strategic planning, approaches for improving collaboration, increasing community involvement, identifying additional funding sources, and improved organizational structure to drive the successful completion of the trail.
The grant is effective immediately and we expect to begin work with the selected NPS team during the 2021 summer.
