Devil’s Elbow

You will no doubt be pleased to hear the the mystery of the name “Devil’s Elbow” has been solved. Sort of.

Heceta Head State Park (which includes Devils Elbow State Park) is located in a cove at the mouth of Cape Creek. There are picnic tables sheltered from the wind and a great view of the ocean. A short trail leads to the historic Heceta Head lighthouse and lighthouse keeper’s house. A recently-completed trail gives you a spectacular view of the coast north to Cape Perpetua.
