Fernhill Wetlands - 600 acres of wetland wildlife habitat. Home to herons, hawks, eagles, beaver, otter, mink, waterfowl, shorebirds, and songbirds. Peregrine Falcons and a pair of Bald Eagles are returning visitors. The Fernhill Wetlands Research and Education Field Station, currently under development, will be open to the public. Viewing stations, walking paths, and informational kiosks provide opportunities to discover nature at its best in Forest Grove.
The Wetlands is located off Highway 47 in Forest Grove. About 1/2 mile south of Pacific Ave/Baseline/Highway 8/TV Highway (its all the same road it just changes names the farther west you go). It is on Fernhill Road about .2 miles from highway 47.
