*Motorcycle Roads NorthWest

This road isn’t unpaved, but every other indication I’ve seen mentions how overgrown and poorly maintained this road seems to be. The road is listed as originally being a 30′s era section of US 101 that’s been obsoleted by the new road which takes a more direct but steeper route closer to Cascade Head.

This route is part of the Oregon Coast Bicycle Trail because the lower incline is much easier for our non-motorized brethren, so please be aware of bicyclists when on this road since it’s not quite two lanes wide in all places.

I like linking this road in a nice loop around the backside of US101 that goes over hill near Cascade Head. Doing this loop a few times is a good way to burn a couple hours.
