Nehalem Divide Section Dog Friendly Hike

Activity Notes

The Nehalem Divide Section Dog Friendly Hike This is the third section of our Crown Zellerbach Trail Hikes.  We will meet at the Ruley Trailhead on Scappoose-Vernonia Road. https://www.oregonhikers.org/field_guide/Ruley_Trailhead This section will be a little more challenging as the gravel road bed steepens and enters the Secondary Coast Range Woodland.  The trail continues to follow the North Scappoose Creek up to it's source and to where the Tunnel went through the Nehalem Divide. We will have lunch at the Nehalem Divide Trailhead and then hike back to the Ruley Trailhead.  The distance is 8.9 miles and 675 ft elevation Gain.  Leashed Well Trained Dogs are welcome, but you don't need a dog to attend. https://www.oregonhikers.org/field_guide/Crown_Zellerbach_Traverse_Hike
