You don’t have to be a stair freak to appreciate the many hidden stairways around Portland.

The stairways lead through charming neighborhoods and beautiful parks, found in nearly every corner of the city. On this week’s Peak Northwest podcast, we string those stairways together for three beautiful stair walks – perfect outings to get your legs moving at the start of spring.

Based on the book “Portland Stair Walks” by local author Laura O. Foster, these excursions are just the beginning. You can find more stair walks and other urban adventures in her book, or by wandering on foot and finding them yourself.

Here are some highlights from this week’s show:

Why should you climb stairs for fun?
Mt. Tabor Park offers stairways in a beautiful natural setting.
The Kings Heights Stairs are serious business.
A stair walk along Alameda Ridge is like a treasure hunt.
