Listen Later

Looking for incredible coastal views? Make your way to the Boardman Corridor.

Officially known as the Samuel H. Boardman State Scenic Corridor, the 12-mile stretch of the southern Oregon coast is known for its big views, beaches and hiking trails, all found off a series of pull-outs alongside U.S. 101.

On this week’s episode of Peak Northwest, we get into all the best sights to see at the Boardman Corridor, as well as some tips on navigating the sometimes confusing trailheads and parking areas.

Here are some highlights from this week’s show:

  • What exactly is the Boardman Corridor?
  • Arch Rock and Natural Bridges are two of the most popular attractions in the area – for good reason.
  • The Thomas Creek Bridge is a major feat of engineering.
  • A trio of beaches offer opportunities to get to the sand, with varying levels of difficulty.
