Narration by Lane Harris
This favorite coastal destination never fails to disappoint! We had a great turnout on this one, as we made our way to the trailhead at the Sunset Bay day use area. During the short road walk less than a mile in, we walked right past where the road had given way weeks earlier. Vehicle traffic was prohibited, but it was open to foot traffic. While the regular car-driving touristy crowd was kept at bay, we still had plenty of company on the trail. This was not surprising, as it was a beautiful clear day!
We took in all the views that this place has to offer as we made our way toward Cape Arago. We forgone the steep trail that goes above the road and decided to just hike on the road. No traffic to worry about on this day!
After a leisurely lunch at the overlook, we made our way back, finishing up this 9-mile roundtrip excursion along one of the most beautiful stretches of the Oregon coast.
