The section of the Oregon Coast Trail from Arch Rock to Brookings, through the Samuel H. Boardman State Scenic Corridor, is one of the most beautiful trails in the world. It is also one of the most accessible as it routinely touches US 101 with ample parking. Portions are flat and easily hiked. Other parts can be quite steep and there is at least one part on a beach that can be crossed only at low tide. Arch Rock is one of the most spectacular viewpoints along this hike. After Arch Rock, the trail skims along the cliffs to Spruce Island Viewpoint, a short distance away. From there, the trail continues out to a cape which should not be skipped (but there is a cutoff), then swings back to US
