Siuslaw National Forest

The Siuslaw National Forest encompasses one of the most diverse landscapes along the western coast of the United States. The terrain ranges from dense old conifer forests, to beautiful, fertile coastline, to miles of barren sand dunes. This beautiful region will capture your imagination and dazzle your eyes. Campers come here from across the country to learn about the region's intriguing ancient American culture, swim in the ocean, and explore places like the beautiful Cape Perpetua Scenic Area, Mary's Peak, and Rock Creek Wilderness Area.
