A fun workout with great views at the top. On nice days expect a lot of people. The back stairs are wider and offer more room to social distance as you climb. Be sure to explore the top as there is usually something interesting going on (impromptu guitar player, etc)

Mt. Tabor is a great place to come if you want to exercise. If you want to run stars the ones in the back of the mountain are good because they are wide and there is plenty of space to run up with a friend or to pass if someone is in front of you. However, the steps in the front are steeper and more aggressive although only wide enough for one or possibly two people. You will really feel the burn and work your lungs if you run the two flights off stairs in the front of the mountain and then continue to run straight up the dirt trail to the left. All in all if you run straight up the front of the mountain youll run up two flights off stairs, one moderate dirt trail and then a steep dirt trail which no matter how many times I run this path always kicks my butt.

A dormant volcano in southeast Portland creates the perfect place to look down hawthorn street and have views of the city. Lots of lovely trails to hike around and playgrounds for kids.

There are a lot of them, and theyre not too steep. Easily one of the top ten staircases in the Pacific Northwest.

First visit, enjoyed it! Some good views of the city.

5 stars if you want to beat yourself up with an intense workout. Start climbing....

Wonderful exercise and when you get to the top dont cheat yourself walk around its a beautiful view

Fun place to get some fresh air and exercise. The bird tweeting in the canopy overhead was delightful.

Great workout but can be busy at times.

Better get your workout shoes on for this hike!

The stairs themselves are steep. The view from the top of these stairs is arguably the best on Tabor. We watched the 4th of July fireworks from here--they ballooned up in distant towns and neighborhoods.

Dope walk up and down. Shout out to everybody who was running the stairs.

Good place for exercise. Clean safe. Thanks

I love Portland and everything about it. This place is one of many that really encapsulates the feeling of this city. A local told me that Mt Tabor was, at one point in time, a volcano. It’s a great place to get some morning exercise and take in the fresh air and beautiful views. At the top you can see and excellent view of the city.

Aside from being covered in loxist graffiti, its a nice place.

My favorite walking area in Portland. Excellent spot to get your heart rate up.

The stairs are shorter than they look, and they lead up into the greater park. Really nice views of East Portland and downtown from the top. You can see right down burnside street for many miles.Cool redwoods to see along the way you’re into that kind of thing. Parking at the base has been easy both times I went.

It wasBeautiful I loved it and I’m feeling Generous today soo I made it four

The StAiRs are a killer, but the view is heaven.

Gorgeous view and lots of fresh air. Great for runners, walkers, hikers, readers and picnickers!

Nice workout stairs with forest setting

Its usually very busy, but today I came and it was very peaceful. Its also a great workout running up and down the stairs

Huge inner city wilderness park. The stairs are a little intense but we thoroughly enjoyed the playground and area to explore

If you want a workout these are the stairs for you! With a false summit to make you hate your life, its just enough torture. But at least you get an amazing view of downtown Portland from the top.

Great rise over run on these classic Portland ascenders. Youll fit right in along the fitness grandmas, pooch wranglers, bird spotters, family outers, and errant squirrels. New handrails make for a secure assistance should you require. Nice landings between flights make for lovely breath catchers. Mind the cars and cyclists at the road crossings. You have the right of way but that doesnt matter much if you get run over.

Thee best stairs in Portland to get those glutes in shape for winter ;)

Great work out and nice views!

Like the bizarro Portland version of Seattles Volunteer Park. Or is that the other way around?

Looking for a good workout? These stairs are great! You can mix it up and run the volcano or just do the stairs. Theyre wide and have lots of tree cover. Even nice on a hot day. Love love Tabor!

This is a wonderful park on a volcano. Walk the stairs, climb the slopes, see Mt. Hood to the East, Mt. St. Helens to the North,, and Central Portland, the Willamette Valley and the Northwest Hills to the West

Perfect for stair lovers..there are hundreds of stairs! They go both up AND down!! Im pretty sure you will FALL for these stairs

Pleasant woods area in the middle of town.

Awesome location for hikes, picnics, or taking the kids to play

Very good exersise but a bit crowded

A gem in the city -- big trees, sweeping vistas, enough terrain to map short walks or longer hikes. Please leash your dog(s).

Its always a nice place to, sort of, get away from the city.

Beautiful place to visit and exercise..

Great views and wonderful place for a little exercise.

Youll get a great workout, its free and your body will thank you after it hates you first. So what that I did it in jeans

Strange to give a review for stairs, but I wish Id known about them sooner so Ill share! They are a great way to get to the top of Tabor fairly quickly. Maybe not quite as scenic as the trails, but still well shaded. They are wide enough that you can have multiple people heading up and down (+ four legged friends) and usually you dont feel too crowded. They are well maintained (they just got new railings summer 2018) and offer a great workout. I will often run/walk them (as well as the other, shorter stairs around Tabor), and Ive used them for mountaineering training with a heavy pack. It can get a little monotonous, but people watching helps. There is also a nice drinking fountain at the top and bathrooms! Note - on Wednesdays they close the roads so it can be extra nice to be on Tabor those days if youre running/walking/biking!

Great workout in a beautiful setting!

Great

Tiring but very fun. Many pokestops.

Beautiful area. Lots of places to explore

Take your time take a break if you need to, but YES walk these stairs

Great for a stair workout

Always a great way to off load the day and honor all the sacred, indigenous beauty. We are fortunate.

My granddaughter saw a very fit younger gentleman hopping up these stairs. She sat down and had me copying him. Beautiful jewel in Portland.

Historically portland

Its a really lovely area. The park has nice clean trails and qonderful views of downtown and surrounding areas. It also has a good sized playground.

If wasn’t on Google it would be a secret spot

Great running trails all year round!

So many stair runners...

To have this natural beauty in our city is such a joy and treasure.

I love these stairs

Looks like a place where the locals work out. Felt pretty safe during the day and the stairs, views and trails are marked. Very beautiful.

Very nice view. Perfect place for a hike and nice scenery!

Lots of people doing the work in a beautiful place.

I wish I had pictures to this place. We stumbled upon this as we are driving around Portland and got lost in the process. Were glad we did cause this place is such a good find. It is well kept, and the area is HUGE! Huge trees, with guides, water fountains, and LOTS OF STAIRS. So if you are trying to get your workout on, definitely hit this place. If you just want a nice vista, this is also the place to do it.

Excellent place to run up and down stairs.

Beautiful awe inspiring peaceful place to walk amongst huge pine trees!

Always hard running them, always fun

Great scenic cardio workout. The stairs gain 171 feet in elevation and there are multiple paths to branch off onto to keep things mentally engaging.One caveat is these stairs are uneven. Some flights have sunken a little with age and some risers are taller than others. Hence the steps can be challenging to negotiate when theyre wet. Its par for the course for old architecture and IMO adds some variety and challenge.

Best park in SE Portland, the view from the top of My Tabor is worth climbing every stair.

Beautiful park, old growth Douglas Fir, great view, quiet, peaceful, great place for a walk, run or bike ride, if you like stairs or hills.

280 stairs to not quite the top, 7 repeats up/down will net you 2 miles and 980+ gain.

Never gets old. Beautiful views at the top.

Great for hiking love the wilderness

Great area to walk around. Lots of different trails and paths.

There stairs are ex hairdressing ad a workout but the view is always worth it.

These are certainty ok stairs

Great park for a jog, a walk, a workout. Theres a few benches where you can get great pictures of Portland. Parking can be a little tricky but do remember where you park and where you enter the park. If you forget, you could end up lost for a while.

The stairs of doom

I run from Belmont to Mt. Tabor and break up the run with these stairs. It makes for a great workout. They recently installed new railings. And the stairs are lined with trees. Such a great spot.

These are excellent stairs; I use them all the time.

A really fun wilderness park. The stairs are killer but its a fin park none the less

They just added new railings. Great place to run.

Great workout! 282 stairs. Theres 171 feet of elevation gain in about 0.2 mile. Several lovely trails as well. Water fountains and restrooms available.

Good park... Worth to spend two to three hours.. Relaxing with kids... Can climb stairs to the top. Easy climb for all including elders.

Great workout...why the city put in new super expensive handrails that have already been tagged is beyond me except that I prolly paid for them via taxes.

If I counted correctly, there are 281 steps

Challenging and fun for jogging and training. Totally worth the view at the top!

Cool park. A lot of hiking and nature. Visit the volcanic amphitheater.

If you want an amazing workout the stair are your answer. Just going up them once and your out of breath. If fit people struggle. Do them a couple of times and fill the burn

Great set of stairs for quad building! 282 steps.

Tough hikes around an old volcano.

Popular spot in Portland and no wonder! Beautiful and good walking

Who doesnt love exercising up stairs? Its a beautiful park.

People told me it was long. I was not prepared... Great challenge for a workout!

Heh .....heh ....whats not to like!...I like the stairs cause I like to work out and these are perfect for that!... Nice and long!

Amazing place

Absolutely love this place! Great place for a workout, a day out with the kiddos, or just self-care and meditation. Mount Tabor is amazing!

A great place to get some steps. 268 I believe. Great views of Mt Hood and downtown once at the top.

This is hard to give stars. 5 if youre into difficult stair runs. 1 if you hate stairs. 4 because its a great workout for all ages, shaded, beautiful view from the top.

Beautiful place and great to take the kids

Nice Portland experience in climbing a volcano!

How do your knees feel? Want to go test them?

Great workout with some beautiful scenery

New handrails are beautiful, this is the best exercise staircase in town.

Always good!!!
