Crater Park was dedicated in 1999. It honors the extraordinary life of Antonia Crater, who passed away in December 1993 at age 95, and who was one of the original organizers of Chehalem Park and Recreation District.
Born in Germany, Antonia moved to the United States with her family in 1903.
CPRD's largest and most secluded nature park is near the top of Parrett Mountain and is part of the District's 325-acre parcel of farmland and scenic forest between Newberg, Sherwood, and Wilsonville. There are approximately 12 miles total of both loop and out-and-back trail segments. Surfaces are mostly natural, a mix of flat stretches and many rigorous slopes through woods.
