Trail Overview

As of early April 2024, there is a landslide just to the east of the Elk Bend Campground blocking the Nestucca River Road. This bypass is from the Fan Creek Campground up to Dovre Peak (elevation 2,841 feet) to Elk Bend Campground. This route also allows access to areas of the Tillamook State Forest to the north. It's a steep gravel road with many twists and steep drop-offs. In the winter, it can become impassable at times.
