Cape Disappointment State Park is always a pleasure to visit. I recently visited the park and took the easy stroll up to the North Head Lighthouse. The Cape Disappointment Lighthouse on the Columbia River side is a longer hike, not really LONG though just a bit more than a stroll. Some nicely restored and maintained buildings are in the area along with the lighthouse standing watch atop a high cliff.
Cape Disappointment State Park is rather beautiful with a diverse cross section of Washington terrain. The rugged windswept cliffs yield picturesque views similar to the Norther California coast line. Just a matter of yards in away from the sea lies lush fern gardens and classic Western Washington fauna.
I love this state park and it offer more than just day trip opportunities. You can camp here as well and they have a wide range of yurts, cabins, and even some houses available. Whether you live at the beach like my sister or just visit form the city like me, stop in to this excellent state park and enjoy another little treasure on the Peninsula.
