Tualatin Hills Nature Park is located at 15655 S.W. Millikan Way Beaverton, Oregon. There is off-street parking on the east side of the park from SW Millikan Way. The main entrance to the park is on the east side from the parking lot so the Coordinates are set there. This park is open dawn to dusk.

From the park website: "In the heart of Beaverton, Cedar Mill Creek spills into the westward flowing Beaverton Creek. Surrounding this confluence is the Tualatin Hills Nature Park, a remarkably diverse 222-acre wildlife preserve with wetlands, forests and streams that are habitat to insects, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals. The park features about five miles of trail; 1.5 miles of trails are paved, while the remaining 3.5 miles are well-maintained, soft-surface trails. The Oak Trail and sections of the Vine Maple Trail are paved and wheelchair accessible."
