Beautiful park setting in the spring.

Near food and the mall. Great place to catch some relaxation after your flight to Portland or to get some food / shopping done before leaving there.

If you're wandering around the South Waterfront and find yourself with a little time to kill, the…read morePortland Aerial Tram is one of those why not experiences that turns into glad I did that. It's a quick ride, but don't let that fool you. The moment that cabin lifts off, you're floating over the freeway, climbing straight up the hill like you've somehow cheated gravity. And when you hit that height, get your camera ready because the views don't ease in they hit you all at once. The river stretches out, the city stacks itself in layers, and on a clear day it feels like you can see half of Portland laid out below you. Now let me tell you about those towers. Nobody prepares you for that part. You're cruising along thinking this is smooth and peaceful, maybe even getting a little too confident, and then the tram rolls over one of those support towers and suddenly this thing pitches and rocks and gives a little bounce like it just remembered it's hanging from a wire. I watched a grown man go from leaning cool against the glass to grabbing the rail like it owed him money. I'm not saying I did the same thing, but if there were security cameras, I hope they enjoyed the show. It feels like you're dangling from a high wire in the sky, and for a split second you start making life decisions and promises you have no intention of keeping once your feet are back on the ground. I don't even know what the ticket runs these days, but even if it's around ten bucks, it's money well spent. There's also that move people talk about catch a bus up near Washington Park or the zoo, hike your way through the trails, and ride the tram down. Hard to argue with that kind of finish. Sure, it technically drops you off at a hospital, which isn't exactly a tourist destination, but honestly that almost adds to the charm. It's practical, a little strange, and somehow still one of the cooler quick things you can do. Five stars. If you're nearby and not doing anything, go take the ride. Just know that when that cabin hits those towers and starts swaying around, you might discover a whole new level of respect for gravity and your own grip strength.

This was hands down the most unique experience I have ever had going to a hospital! This is such a…read morecool tourist attraction lol well that is to say a transportation service turned tourist attraction! Most of the people riding are actually the hospital staff who have either ridden their bikes, train or parked their car down at the bottom and take the tram up to work! It's so cool because it offers you the most beautiful views of Portland! You see the river and multiple Mountain View's on a clear day. We came the only day it wasn't raining which was our very last day! If you have an hour it's worth it to just stop by. You don't need longer than that!
