The Portland Metro area in Oregon has tons of splash pads for kids to cool off and play at during the summer and this list includes the best 6 splash pads around Portland, Oregon to try this summer!
West Linn - Hammerle Park: Located right on highway 43 close to 205. There are lots of tall trees that provide shade, a great spash pad, and lots of playground equipment.
Happy Valley - Happy Valley Park: Located in the heart of Happy Valley. We LOVE this splash pad. There are tons of walking trails and playground equipment close by.
Pearl District - Jameson Square: This is a really fun water park, especially on hot days. The water fills up to about a foot and then drains continuously. There are a lot of spots nearby to grab lunch or have a picnic.
Wilsonville - Town Center Park and Memorial Park: This one is great for little ones since there are areas that don't spray in the face (my girls aren't a fan of these ones!). You can also sit in the water in some spots, so it's great for super hot days.
