The Greenbelt Walkway is an off-road pathway enjoyed by thousands of residents and visitors each year. The trail treats walkers, runners, and cyclists to easy strolls, three distinct vistas of the Portland waterfront. Wildlife watching along the trail is also popular at many of the fields, wetlands, marshes, and woods passed along the route. Bug Light Park, the northern end of the Greenbelt Walkway, provides expansive views of Portland Harbor and, as a 9-acre park with a beach, offers a great picnic and walking spot.
