Ride the Trail — in 3D

Ever wondered what a trail through the Sherwood-to-Newberg corridor would actually look like? Now you can find out.

We’ve built a 3D flythrough viewer that lets you ride the full 15-mile route from your browser. It uses real LiDAR terrain data and shows the actual right-of-way boundaries, bridges, and elevation changes along the corridor.

Hit play and take a virtual ride, or use your mouse and keyboard to explore at your own pace. You can adjust your speed, height, and point of view — fly low to get a trail-level feel, or pull up high for a bird’s-eye view of the route.

Project Launch

We’re launching this site to begin building public awareness of the opportunity — and the urgency — around the PNWR Newberg Branch corridor.

Over the coming weeks we’ll be publishing background research on the corridor’s legal status, the railbanking process, and the case for a Sherwood-to-Newberg trail. We’ll also be reaching out to local elected officials, planning staff, and potential partner organizations.

If you’ve found your way here, you’re early — and we’re glad you’re here. Sign up to volunteer or subscribe via RSS to follow along.
