Winter Weather
Due to our elevation, road conditions at Hoyt Arboretum and around Washington Park are often more wintery than other parts of Portland. This can result in road closures and limited access to Hoyt Arboretum during the winter months. Here are a few tools for weather planning:
- Hoyt Arboretum has a weather station that is accessible online through Weather Underground.
- Inclement weather updates are posted to this webpage and the Hoyt Arboretum Facebook Page.
-
The Washington Park shuttle is operating from 10am-4pm daily this time of year. You can track the shuttle’s location at ewpshuttle.org. If shuttle service has been cancelled, it is a good indication that you should not drive into the park.
