Looking for an unexpected spot to see fall foliage in Oregon? Check out Portland’s Mt. Tabor Park, where you’ll see the city’s trees in all their splendor. While many of the gorgeous trees that cover this dormant volcano are evergreen, you’ll also find hidden gems of brilliant fall color. And each lovely yellow, orange, red, or brown tree you see will be all the more special set against the deep dark green of the surrounding arbors.

Another huge draw of Mt. Tabor Park in the fall is that you are afforded excellent views of the city beneath the park in all its autumnal glory. This means you get to see the beautiful brightly colored trees that line the neighborhood streets below the park.
