틸라묵 카운티‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

Beautiful lookout that is probably the best view of the hike.

The trail takes you right up to the cliff's edge. From here you can look down past the brave trees that cling to the cliff rim and into Wells Cove. Here the water carves away at the steep cliffsides and a small beach rests at the head of the cove far below your feet.

The Nehalem River is a breathtaking waterway that boasts diverse wildlife, both on land and in the water, from majestic elk and black-tailed deer to playful river otters and busy beavers. Below the surface, the river is teeming with salmon and other fish. As you ride along, you might spot a northern spotted owl, an osprey, or even a golden eagle in the sky. In 2019, the river was designated a “State Scenic Waterway” to protect its corridor, wildlife, and stunning scenery.

Pacific City is a charming coastal town beneath the majestic Cape Kiwanda. Mesmerizing landmarks, sandy beaches, awe-inspiring views, and excellent surfing opportunities surround this picturesque location. Here, you will see the massive “sea stack” rock formation and the towering sand dune leading to Cape Kiwanda's top, offering breathtaking vistas. The town is also an exceptional spot for fishing, surfing, and watching dorymen launch their boats directly from the beach.

Situated just west of Elk Mountain at 3,226 feet, Kings Mountain is a moderately challenging peak to bag and the views over Tillamook State Forest from the top are worth it! When combined with Elk Mountain via Elk Mountain - Kings Mountain Loop Trail, this makes for a great circular route!

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).

Cascade Head's wildflower meadows faced development threats in the 1960s,but were saved by devoted enthusiasts and preserved by the Nature Conservancy. Descending the meadow means a steeper return, but a halfway overlook reveals rugged northern coves and islands.

Pass the fabulously scenic meadow, and descend the bluff to a cliff-edge viewpoint of Hart's Cove and Chitwood Creek's waterfall. Sea lions can be heard but not seen, hidden by a promontory. Marvel at the beautiful waterfall cascades into the surging ocean!
