around Beaverton

Beaverton boasts miles of outdoor
activities. The Tualatin Hills Nature Park
and Interpretive Center offers a serene and

peaceful setting to take an afternoon stroll,
while Progress Ridge Lake offers a nice dock

to dip your toes in the water and cast a ishing
line.

Another noteworthy attraction is the
fountain at City Park, next to the Beaverton
City Library. The fountain is like stepping back

in time and playing in the sprinkler on a hot
summer’s day.

For those feeling adventurous, the rock
climbing wall at Stoneworks Climbing Gym
really gets the blood pumping! It’s a great

place to take a date and try something new!
Just because the sun goes down doesn’t

mean Beaverton closes up shop.
Whether you want to take in Korean,
Japanese or Thai cuisine or even a European

dish, Beaverton has an array of restaurants to
satisfy all of your culinary cravings.

Want to keep going? There’s plenty to
do after hours! You can check out the local
nightlife and take in some live music or try a
