Roughly 8 miles (13 km) long, the park is less than 1 mile (1.6 km) wide near downtown Portland and about 2 miles (3.2 km) wide at its northwestern end.[9] It extends along the West Hills from West Burnside Street near downtown Portland to where the Willamette River divides to flow around Sauvie Island.[10] Covering most of the east face of the ridge above the Willamette River, it is bounded by West Burnside Street on the south, Northwest Skyline Boulevard on the west, Northwest Newberry Road on the north, and Northwest St. Helens Road (U.S. Route 30) on the east.[10] Elevations above sea level vary from 50 feet (15 m)[3] near U.S. Route 30 at the base of the ridge to about 1,100 feet (340 m)[1] near the crest of the ridge along Northwest Skyline Boulevard.
