Coastal Trippers

Explore Green Island

Open the second Saturday of each month March - December 8am-4pm

Extended Summer Hours: June-August 8am-6pm

Discover one of western Oregon’s most remarkable restoration stories at the place where the McKenzie and Willamette Rivers meet.

Once farmland, Green Island has been transformed into a thriving young floodplain forest where beavers, river otters, and more than 150 bird species now make their home. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful walk, wildlife viewing, photography, or simply time outdoors, this is a special place to experience a living river in action.

No registration required. Free and open to everyone.

If this ever becomes accessible again I would love to see it:)

This group is for those interested in organizing or attending trips to see natives in their natural setting. We will monitor your suggestions and experience to plan a series of field trips. Tell us about those special places you keep close to your heart.
