Cascade Head is a high point on the central Oregon coast between Lincoln City and Neskowin. We hiked up on the South Trail, 3.4 miles to the top (6.8 round trip) with 1300 feet of elevation gain.
The trail starts in the lush forest.
Our first view of the ocean was pretty foggy, but a taste of the views to come.
Our first view looking south down the coastline. This is perhaps half way through the hike. The rest of the hike just traverses higher and higher up the hill.
Fog came and went during the hike making for an ever evolving scene.
We were totally fogged in at times.
A look straight west over the ocean from the top.
There’s also a window through the trees for a look north up the coast.
