Located directly adjacent to Highway 38 3 miles east of Reedsport sits an Elk viewing area. Free and Open year-round, dawn to dusk.
The resident herd roams the 1,000+ acres of marshland, sharing the sprawling meadows and mountains with a variety of neighbors. Amongst the abounding menagerie are great-blue herons, coyotes, variable rodents like beavers and nutria, otters, and even bears. The creek’s also a main migration route making it a primo spot for bird-watching so bring your binoculars.
The viewing area has universal bathrooms, making the site fully accessible for all visitors. Oh, and did we mention it’s free? Pack a picnic, set up in the gazebo, and unwind in great company.
