Arch Cape Area

Post by mikewodtke » December 29th, 2023, 9:46 pm

Staying in the Arch Cape area and looking for great hikes that are outside of the usual suspects like Oswald, Neahkahnie, etc. I’ve run up Onion and Angora, too. Thank you in advance for the cool ideas y’all!

I’m open to distance or time knowing they are not always correlated when hiking. Just looking for cool places to go see off the well-worn path.

we have had many "bots" that keep signing up and making one post. I thought that might be you. But, you have passed the test and replied, so you must not be. You have passed the Turing test :)

Ecola State park has a trail going to this shelter, then walk on the trail towards the ocean. Nice view of the lighthouse. Some WWII remnants. Not a very strenuous hike.

King's Mountain has a strenuous hike. Highway 6 about 30 miles from Tillamook. Nice views of mountains and the ocean if it's clear.

Saddle Mountain same - highway 26 about 25 miles from Canon Beach.
