リンカーン郡のおすすめツーリングルート

Fantastic

There are some places where it seems almost pointless to write a tip because human languages don't have the capacity to describe the beauty. This is one such place. On this short stretch of road just off of Highway 101 you'll see sites that you'll never forget, and will always be pulling you back just so you can see them again.

Rocky Creek State Park is blessed with dramatic cliffs, pounding surf, forested bluffs. And if that wasn't enough it's also and excellent location for whale watching. Especially during the gray whale migration periods of December-January and March-April.

Sometimes the best part isn't the beach at all, looking east...

sunset can be beautiful

Outstanding ocean viewpoint only a short distance from parking lot. Easy hike. Also good access to a beach. Lots of picnic tables. Has restrooms.

The world's shortest title was lost in 1989 when Guinness named the Roe River in Montana the shortest in the world. In an attempt to reclaim the title, the people of Lincoln City submitted a new measurement to Guinness of about 120 feet (37 m) marked at "extreme high tide." At the time, the Lincoln City Chamber of Commerce described the Roe as a "drainage dike being studied for a school project." Montana supporters shot back that the D was just an "ocean water backup," pointed out that there was an alternative fork to the Roe that was only 30 feet (9.1 m) long and suggested a new survey . Guinness apparently never decided the dispute and let the Roe claim stand, but as of 2006 decided to no longer list the shortest river, perhaps because of this ongoing dispute.

A wondrous and rugged bay rimmed with basalt. Boiler Bay is a great place to watch wild surfing action on the rocky spurs. This magnificent panoramic view offers a great opportunity to see gray whales all year round. Bring your binoculars - this is one of the best places in Oregon to see oceanic birds (like shearwaters, jaegers, albatrosses, grebes, pelicans, loons, oystercatchers and murrelets). In 1910 an explosion sank the J. Marhoffer and you can see the ship's boiler at low tide.
