Come and enjoy a beautiful, guided nature walk at Tryon Creek State Natural Area. These walks are meant to be a safe space for Autistic individuals, their families, friends, and supporters to be together to enjoy and experience nature without any agenda and no judgment. The guided walks will be led by an Oregon Master Naturalist, Certified Interpretive Guide and former ASO Board member. Advance registration is required, but free.

UPDATED INFORMATION ABOUT PARKING FEE: ASO and Oregon Parks Forever are providing free parking at Tryon Creek for registered participants! Please scroll down to the FAQ at the bottom of this page for more information.

  • We will meet at the Nature Center located off of the Terwilliger Boulevard entrance and begin the hike at 1 PM.
  • The guided nature walk will cover a distance of no more than 2 miles and will be flexible depending on the group preferences. Expect some hills! Participants are free to leave the walk at any time, for any reason.
  • Caregivers and supporters are welcome but must also register in advance so we can count them towards the limit.
  • For all age Nature Walks, all children must be supervised by a responsible adult at all times throughout the walk. Childcare is NOT being provided for these events.
  • NO DOGS PLEASE, due to the size of the group. Services dogs who are task trained are welcome.
