Trails

There are two nature trails at Nestucca Bay National Wildlife Refuge. 



The Pacific View Trail is 0.6 miles round trip.  It's classified as easy.  It is paved with asphalt and is a one way up and same way back trail.  The trail is accessible for people with mobility issues and there are two rest benches along the way and one on the deck. The trail ends at an observation deck where you will be treated to a sweeping view of the Pacific Ocean, Pacific City’s Haystack Rock, Nestucca Bay, the Coast Range, and the Little Nestucca River.

The Two Rivers Nature Trail is 2.2 miles round-trip and offers visitors several loop options. The trail surface is a combination of gravel or natural soils and is rated as moderately difficult based on elevation changes and uneven terrain. The trail winds through coastal prairie, small wildflower meadows, and mixed-alder forest, with a stop to view the confluence of the Nestucca and Little Nestucca Rivers. The family-friendly trail offers birdwatching along the way and plenty of opportunity to take photographs of the preserved forestlands. There are benches along the way for resting.

Dogs are prohibited on both nature trails.
