| Hike Summary: | This hike is so cool. If you are on the Oregon Coast do not pass up all the beauty that you will see. The name says it all you feel as if you are in middle earth! You also get to see a light house which I have loved since for as long as I remember. It is a long hike but even if you want to do just a small portion and turn around when you are ready. it is still very worth it. There is thick green growth everywhere, salty clean air and just a great hike. You will most likely run into other hikers but it isn't overly packed so make sure you take a look at this one. Absolutely beautiful and the whole family can enjoy it! |
