Pacific Northwest - Oregon

Loeb State Park

A Karen Brown Recommendation

We took a short, easy walk through nearby Loeb State Park apporximately 10 miles north east of Brookings (farther inland via the same road that took us to Azalea Park; open daily year round; 541-469-2021). The northern most redwood grove in the US is located in the park. In fact, with a printed handout we collected at the Redwood Grove Nature Trail trailhead, we learned how to tell the difference between a coastal redwood and a Douglas fir, the difference between four varieties of ferns, and what to call that gold-bellied creature that kept skittering across our path: a newt! It is a tranquil thing indeed to walk through a forest like this.
