Devil's Cauldron Viewpoint is probably the viewpoint with the shortest hike to get there. But it's 100% worth it and once you reach the viewpoint you can see and hear the waves crashing against the rocky coastline.

Running

This viewpoint is only a short run from the parking area and absolutely worth it! From here, you can admire the waves crashing into the rocky cliffs below. To extend your run from here, carry on to Neahkahnie Viewpoint to the east or Short Sand Beach to the north (depending on where you began).
