About the wetlands: Fernhill Wetlands is an innovative conservation and restoration project exploring new ways to reclaim water using a Natural Treatment System. It involves more than 700 acres owned
by Clean Water Services and managed in partnership with the City of
Forest Grove and Fernhill Wetlands Council. The
wetlands include Fernhill Lake, Cattail Marsh, Eagle Perch Pond and
Dabbler's Marsh, accessible to the public by trails, where more than 200 species of birds have been spotted, including bald eagles. Canine earthlings are not allowed on the trails.
