Cape Blanco State Park

I’ve always loved lighthouses, they are a beacon of hope and safety. The Cape Blanco Lighthouse is the oldest in Oregon and was built ins 1898. We’ll have to come back for a tour! The views from the top were gorgeous.

Explore more at stateparks.oregon.gov … Located at the state's westernmost tip, and perched over the Pacific Ocean, Cape Blanco features a 19th-century lighthouse and an early Irish settler's home. Use our private, sheltered campsites as your base camp while you enjoy the park's history, trails and rugged coastline.

More than eight miles of hiking trails lead to the beach, viewpoints of ocean vistas, fishing spots along the Sixes River, and the lighthouse. On horseback, follow a seven-mile trail or enjoy a 150-acre open riding area across from the horse camp.
