TravelerOver 100 years old and 80 feet tall, the Buxton Trestle is the unrivaled highlight of the 21-mile Banks-Vernonia Trail just west of Portland, Oregon. This former railroad trestle has found new life as a family-friendly trail perfect for year-round hiking and biking. If you aren’t looking for distance, you can access the trestle from a dedicated trailhead and make a short loop that passes over and around it. For a more active day, it can be a destination on a longer hike or bike ride.
