Living at Linc 301 means stepping into summer with a fresh, laid-back rhythm. No overplanning. No long road trips required. Just sunshine, cool mornings, and new habits that make the most of your city. Whether you’re cruising through the park on skates or sipping iced coffee near the waterfront, these are the summer activities you’ve got to try in Portland this year.
Take Your Skates to the Streets
Portland’s got the pavement for it. Grab your roller skates and roll over to Waterfront Park, where the wide paths and open space are perfect for building up your skills. There’s plenty of space to practice crossovers or just cruise with music in your headphones. Want something more scenic? Laurelhurst Park has smooth loops and shaded corners that feel like a mini movie set.
Pack a Picnic Like a Pro
Keep it easy. Grab a blanket, some fruit, and something bubbly. Then head to Tanner Springs Park—just a short walk from Linc 301. This quiet urban space is full of soft grass, tucked-away benches, and that perfect Portland charm. Bring a friend or go solo with your favorite book. Either way, it’s peak summer energy.
Try Yoga Outside
Forget the studio. Roll your mat out under the trees at Jamison Square. The vibe? Urban oasis meets chill morning stretch. Bring a thermos of coffee, stream a quick yoga flow, and feel the difference. It’s the kind of start to the day that just feels right.
Wander the Pearl District
Right outside your door, you’ve got walkable streets filled with cute shops, inspiring art, and the smell of fresh coffee. Hit up Courier Coffee Roasters for a quiet corner and a cup that’s never rushed. Or take your iced latte to go and explore the neighborhood like you’ve never seen it before.
Take a Scenic Stroll
Need some nature? The Northwest District to Forest Park trailhead is just a quick drive or bike ride away. Start your morning with a walk through lush trees and filtered light. It’s quiet, shaded, and grounding—basically your personal forest reset.
Let Summer Feel Effortless
Linc 301 keeps you connected to everything that makes summer sing in Portland. With parks, trails, and cozy coffee spots all around, you’re never far from your next slow-paced adventure. So lace up those skates, dust off your picnic basket, and stretch out beneath the sky.
This summer, don’t just go outside. Live in it. Portland’s waiting.
