Clatsop Loop Trail from Indian Beach

07/24/22

This was an easy to moderate hike on a well-maintained trail- mostly forest views but a few views of the ocean towards the top. I recommend starting by going left on the trail instead of right- the climb has more variance that way with a nice long downhill at the end. Going to the right will be a steep uphill climb for a LONG way before you get some ups and downs on the way back to the starting point. Outhouse and a view point at the halfway mark!

Indian Beach

Just about an hour west from Portland in Ecola State Park you'll find Indian beach. It's a 5 dollar fee to get into the park, but that fee also keeps the crowds out. Once you get into the park just follow the signs to Indian beach just a little ways down the road. This beach is filled with surfers, but its super fun to watch and they mainly stay on one end of the beach. On a warm day the water...

Explore Ecola State Park

Oregon is full of state parks. Ecola is one of the easiest parks to capture amazing views. The sate park spans 9 miles of Oregon coastline. It's $5 to get in and it's well worth the money (you can also purchase an annual parking pass here). Many people come to the park to take photos of Haystack Rock on Cannon Beach. There are hidden beaches all around the park with great views of the Paci...

Crescent Beach Trail

Head off the 101 to Ecola State Park and drive to the large main car area. From here the trailhead is located just above the restroom facility and is well signed, you can't miss the huge placard. Starting with a few short incline stair sets, you will hit the main roadway; follow the sidewalk for a few hundred yards before plunging back into the forest at the trail-marker. Keep following along a...

Cannon Beach

Start your adventure by heading to Cannon Beach, Or. Either head west on Highway 26 from Portland, OR. or Highway 101 south from Aberdeen Wa. Plan to arrive at the town a few hours before sunset, the beach stretches a couple miles, and it is awesome to walk along the beach during the day. There is public parking in the town but it does fill up quickly depending on the time of year that you visi...

Hug Point Waterfall and Cave

Hug Point is located just 4-5 miles south of the famous Cannon Beach along HWY 101 and is a must stop on any travel along the Oregon coast. Hug Point got its name from the original travelers to this beautiful area. Without the modern day highways we know today, visitors to this rugged coast line had to travel by stagecoach along the beach. The adventurous travelers had to "Hug" the sides of the...

Del Rey Beach

Less than 2 hours from Portland, set the GPS to Gearhart, and drive out onto Del Ray Beach for the sunset with your significant other. This is the only beach in the state of Oregon that you are allowed to drive on. If you have four wheel drive, take a little drive through the incoming waves and splash your tires. After you're done playing, park it in a good private spot to watch the sun go do...
