Corvallis-to-the-Sea Trail Partnership

Imagine a trail, linking the Willamette Valley & the Pacific Ocean. Envision traveling at the pace of the Native Americans, early settlers & naturalist explorers for an afternoon, a day, a weekend or a week, through the Oregon Coast Range, rich with history, geology, rural life and a haven for wildflowers, lush forests & wildlife.

Contemplate setting out from home & being able to travel on foot, horse or mountain bike & being able to end up at the Coast. Consider the possibility of a journey, under your own power, where you could learn about & visit local farms, wineries, cottage enterprises, historic sites, small towns, tree farms, salmon-spawning grounds & campgrounds along the way.

A journey such as this could become a reality with the Corvallis-to-the-Sea Trail. The idea is to create a system of connecting trails, all with public access, about 50 miles as the crow flies. With few exceptions, this route will be available all year round & close to home. There are deep forests & open vistas; a wide variety of trees, shrubs, & flowers; & an opportunity to learn about local history & timberland management.

The Corvallis-to-the-Sea Trail will provide you with an opportunity to enjoy the Oregon Coast Range in a way you never could before.
