Description

This 0.7-mile trail leads you down to the northwesternmost corner of the lower 48 United States. It starts out as a wide dirt trail and then incorporates cut tree rings, wooden bridges, and boardwalks to get you to the ocean. The hike through the trees will remind you of a rainforest, and the coastline is rough and beautiful. Be sure to hike out to the lookout points along the way for additional fantastic views.

Closed for Covid until further notice. There is an impassible, manned barricade just before Neah Bay. No way in.
