Hiking Highlight
Recommended by Sue
Humbug Mountain State Park Campground is beautiful and home to one of the Oregon coast’s highest headlands, which provides a fantastic shelter for its campground along Brush Creek. There is a great trail that leads to a sandy beach, and if you're feeling adventurous, it's a 5.5-mile hike to the summit of Humbug Mountain, which stands 1765 feet with breathtaking south-facing ocean views. The section north of the campground follows Old Highway 101 for several miles until it joins Highway 101. This worn, paved route is closed to vehicles and is a treat to walk along with magnificent ocean views. The campground includes pull-in electrical sites, tent sites with water nearby, flush toilets, showers, a dedicated hiker/biker camp, and firewood for sale. The campground has both reservation and first-come, first-served campsites, making it an ideal overnight stop for anyone exploring the Oregon Coast.
