The Marys Peak East Ridge and North Ridge Loop offers a diverse hiking experience to the highest point in the Oregon Coast Range. This moderate 8.5-mile (13.6 km) route, with 1536 feet (468 metres) of elevation gain, takes about 4 hours and 18 minutes to complete. You'll trek through old-growth Douglas-fir forests, encounter unique noble fir stands, and emerge into stunning wildflower meadows near the Marys Peak Summit, where panoramic 360-degree views await on clear days.
Planning your trip requires a Northwest Forest Pass for parking at trailheads like Conner's Camp, which has basic facilities. The trail is generally accessible from spring to late fall, with late May to early June being ideal for wildflowers. Be mindful that mountain biking is allowed on some sections between May 15 and October 15, and dogs are permitted on a leash.
Marys Peak is recognized as a Scenic Botanical Special Interest Area, celebrated for its unique and rich diversity of plant life, including subalpine desert-like rock gardens and lush meadows. Its status as the highest point in the Coast Range makes the summit views particularly spectacular, often extending to the Pacific Ocean and major Cascade peaks. This trail is a fantastic way to experience this unique natural environment.
