Well now, let me tell ya ’bout this Luckiamute Landing place. It ain’t nothin’ fancy, mind you, but it’s got its own kinda charm. It’s a good place to go if you like lookin’ at nature and such.
They got this here river, the Luckiamute River, I think they call it. It just winds its way through the land, all slow and lazy like. Kinda pretty, if you ask me. Plenty of trees and green stuff all around. Not like them city places with all the concrete and noise.
Now, I ain’t much for walkin’ far, but they got these trails there. Easy ones, mostly. You can just stroll along and look at the trees and birds. One of them trails, they say it’s the main one, goes in a loop. Good for folks who don’t wanna get lost, I reckon. You can park your car right there, no problem. Just gotta drive down this little road, kinda bumpy, but it gets ya there.
They got this big ol’ area, they call it the north tract. Said it’s 615 acres. That’s a whole lotta land, if you ask me. Can’t even imagine walkin’ all that. But it’s nice and quiet, good for gettin’ away from it all. You know, the hustle and bustle. Just you and the trees and the river. Peaceful, real peaceful.

- Easy trails to walk on.
- A big area called the north tract.
Now, I heard tell that some folks like to go there with their little boats, canoes they call ’em. They paddle down the river, camp out by the water. Sounds like fun, if you’re into that sort of thing. Me, I prefer to keep my feet on solid ground. But they got these spots for campin’, with tables and places to make a fire. So, if you like sleepin’ outside, that’s the place to be.
They say it’s a state park, one of them “natural areas.” Guess that means they try to keep it nice and wild. No fancy buildin’s or nothin’. Just nature doin’ its thing. That’s what I like about it. Simple, like things should be. You can go hike, you can go paddle, or you can just sit and watch the river go by. It’s all good.
I tell ya, it’s one of them hidden gems, like them folks say. Not too many people know about it, which is just fine by me. Keeps it quiet and peaceful. You can go there and just relax, get away from the troubles of the world. It ain’t no Disneyland, but it’s got its own kinda beauty.
So, if you’re lookin’ for a place to get some fresh air, see some trees, and maybe hear a bird or two, Luckiamute Landing is worth a visit. Just remember to wear your walkin’ shoes and bring a snack. And don’t forget to enjoy the peace and quiet. That’s what it’s all about.
And they got this other trail too, not just the main one. So you got choices, if you like walkin’. Me, I usually just stick to the easy one. But it’s nice to know there’s another one, for them adventurous types. My browser, whatever that is, it don’t show it, but they say it’s there.
So yeah, Luckiamute Landing, a good place. Go check it out if you get the chance. You might just like it. It ain’t fancy, but it’s real.
