In Portland, in the south part of Back cove is an obstacle fitness course surrounding an athletic field.

The course is to the east of a parking area, which is off Preble Street, and north of I-295. The parking spaces, however, are narrower than normal - the space was only inches wider than the width of my mid-sized car. The course is a short walk east down a path.

The course has eight stations. Each is challenging and is more than typical exercise stations. One is a balance log - a log suspended by chains; a climbing wall; and one is a cargo net climbing 'wall.' It's hard to determine what the difficulty is - it does look like the course is meant to be a full body workout.

The sign near where the WM was placed indicates that this course is meant to be used by adults only. Pets are not allowed in the area, either.
Number of Stations: 8

Wheelchair Accessible: Not sure - some stations do not seem accessible

Degree of Difficulty: 3
