Weekend Destinations are always a super fun and quick thing to do when you’re pressed for time! Portland, OR has plenty of places to choose from when you’re needing something fun and different to do.
Who doesn’t love farmer’s markets? There are a lot of them in Portland, like the King Neighborhood Market! This one would be a good Sunday midday stop for some fresh local produce and other goodies. After the farmer’s market you can head over to Forest Park. There’s plenty of walking, hiking, and biking trails that weave through the park and connect along the Columbia River. Very scenic! If you’re not wanting to do nature or be outdoors even, head into the city and check out Powell’s City of Books, the largest independent bookstore in the world. Even if you’re not an avid reader, it’s definitely worth it to check it out!
All in all, Portland, OR has you covered when it comes to planning a weekend destination. We’re already halfway through the week, so start planning!
