Tualatin Hills Nature Center provides camps throughout the year where children can explore the beauty of the natural world, make new friends, and embark on an adventure that combines fun and learning.

Tualatin Hills Nature Center’s experienced environmental educators lead engaging, hands-on programs at both nature parks and natural areas within walking distance of schools.

At the Tualatin Hills Nature Center, we believe it's never too late to learn a new skill, especially when it's related to nature. Our Adult Nature Studies program is designed for those who are eager to learn more about nature with fun company.

Tualatin Hills Nature Center partners with community organizations such as the Beaverton Black Parent Union (BBPU) to offer community programs such as the Black & Green Fellowship. This program is a paid experience for Black youth that empowers them to take up space outdoors and improve their mental health by connecting with nature, each other, and their community.

The Tualatin Hills Nature Park offers an interpretive center with a discovery play station, a nature store, and resources to learn more about Tualatin Hills Nature Park.

The park boasts nearly five miles of trails; about 1.5 miles paved, the remaining 3.5 miles well maintained, soft-surface trails. One of the most appealing aspects of the park is its wide variety of flora and fauna. From towering trees and colorful wildflowers to chirping birds and scurrying squirrels, there's always something to see

The Tualatin Hills Nature Center is the jumping-off point to explore nature for visitors entering from the SW Millikan Way parking lot entrance. The Nature Center sits as the gateway to the 222-acre Tualatin Hills Nature Park and a lifetime of connections with nature.

Pets are prohibited at Tualatin Hills Nature Park. For the protection of wildlife, we ask that you leave your pets at home.
