Down the Hobbit Hole!

Beautiful day, Beautiful hike! We traversed the Heceta Headlands and down the Hobbit Trail to the beach. We are getting our legs back in shape! Just under 6 miles today. We wanted to give a shout out to our friend Bundy who is on the mend from a pretty nasty fall down a winter Hobbit Hole; all the best and get well soon!

Looking south down the coast. We love hikingthe headlands above the ocean. We could hear Sea Lions, but never caught sight of them.
At the top of the trail looking north.
Our first view of Hobbit Beach.
No fun on this beach…I guess on the weekends and during the summer this area is overflowing with people.
The trail to Hobbit Beach.
Ahhhhhh, young love?

Tidbit: All of the little trails along the coast are part of the Oregon Coastal Trail, a long-distance hiking trail that goes from the mouth of the Columbia River to the California border, similar to the Long Trail or Appalachian Trail back home.
