Canby Ferry

Description

This nine-car barge is ferried across the Willamette River by an underwater cable. Operating almost continuously since 1914, the boat resembles a trolley connected to an overhead electric power supply. The cost is $1.25 per car and the ride is an essential part of your leisure visit to Southeast Portland. Expect a wait, the ferry is one of the few ways to cross the river in this part of town, making it very popular with commuters. Note that this business accepts only cash.

Canby Ferry

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 8/8/05

This a fun experience. The ferry is located in farm land on both sides, the approach is on rural roads, great views of "Canby dirt". It's the stuff the pioneer risked life and limb to get. Ferry takes about 2 minutes to cross. Mike, the blue heron will stand guard, and the osprey will stand watch on high from his aerie. If you get there and he is parked on the other side, not to worry. He will come over to get you. Ferry runs 7 days a week from 6:30 to 9, or so. Costs a buck and a quarter one way for a car full.
