Cape Creek - FS 1057

Trail Overview

This trail starts off Highway 101 from the west end. It is narrow most of the way and starts off paved, then turns into gravel when you enter the National Forest. This is a beautiful, dense forest trail running inland from the Oregon coast. It also features some cliffs along the trail. It gets steep after the gravel starts and can even get to around a 20-degree slope, which, in turn, features a steep grade back down in elevation. You will incline all the way up to about 1,150 feet at the peak and then start declining back to the Oregon Coast Trail to Sea Lion Caves. There are some nice dispersed camp spots off the trail. 4WD for steep grades is highly recommended, especially when wet.
