Flint Ridge Trailhead: Your Gateway to Coastal Adventure
Welcome to Flint Ridge Trailhead, a breathtaking park located along Klamath Beach Road in Klamath, California. Nestled within the stunning Pacific coastline, this trailhead offers an unparalleled experience for nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers.
As you embark on your journey, you'll find yourself walking along a scenic coastal bluff, where the cries of gulls and sea lions harmonize with the rhythmic crashing of ocean waves. Keep an eye on the vast blue waters below, and you might catch a glimpse of a majestic gray whale spouting in the distance. The gentle whisper of the wind through the alders adds to the serene ambiance.
Flint Ridge Trailhead is part of the renowned Coastal Trail, stretching over 70 miles (142 km) and providing a unique hiking experience distinct from the famous redwoods of the region. Explore delicate tidepool creatures, sandy beaches, and the rugged beauty of the Pacific coastline as you venture along the trails.
Whether you're planning a relaxing day hike or an adventurous backpacking trip, the Coastal Trail offers options for all levels of hikers. Keep in mind that permits are required for all backcountry camps, which can be conveniently obtained at the park visitor centers.
The trail is nearly continuous throughout the parks, with the only significant detour being the Highway 101 bridge over the Klamath River. With several access points and five backcountry camps within easy reach, you can tailor your adventure to suit your needs.
For those seeking a bit more excitement, the Last Chance Section of the trail allows bikes (on the trail only, not at the beach). However, please be aware that this section is occasionally impacted by landslides. We recommend checking with park rangers or visiting the current conditions page to ensure the trail is open.
Enhance your visit by downloading the NPS app, which provides navigation assistance and additional information about the parks on the go.
Discover the hidden treasures of Flint Ridge Trailhead and immerse yourself in the natural wonders of California's coastline. Your adventure awaits!
Reviews
"Phew, for some not seasoned hikers, it was a bit of a hike at 9 miles, but we made it. To get the beach would require more than the 9 miles as it is down the road. This trail gets you to an overlook of the ocean over some steep cliffs. It was great as we heard some people but ran across 0 people on this hike, so if you are looking for less populated, try this one. I loved the variety on this hike. It had a pond, the ocean over look, new forest and old forest, one of my favorites of my whole trip."
"Very beautiful view and coastal trail."
"Magnificent hike for intermediate skill level. The views are spectacular and the redwood trees majestic, abundant and close enough to touch. Totally underrated and exceeded my expectations. Thanks for preserving this piece of paradise. 5 stars all day. Also the absolute antidote to modern day screen life."
"Beautiful"
"Beautiful Road and Trailhead area. Secluded beach overlook and dirt road with primitive camping 1/2 mile hike up in birch woods with access to both the Pacific Coast and the Klamath River. Further down the road there's a couple of more public camping spots yet still remaining secluded off the main hwy which passes by more fishing campgrounds and nearby casino. This perfect all around vacation spot for hiker/camper/fisherman family. No dogs on Flint Ridge trail however they can be on the beach and road overlook."
