HIGHWAY 229 CLOSURE – PARK ACCESS IMPACTED
Oregon Highway 229 is currently closed between mileposts 14 and 15 (between Kernville and Siletz) due to a major landslide that destroyed a section of the roadway. This closure affects access to Lincoln County parks along Hwy 229. There is no local detour in place at this time, and the closure is expected to remain in effect long-term while repairs are planned. Please see individual park pages for specific directions.

Located on the Central Oregon Coast, Lincoln County has scenic towns and beautiful forests surrounded by rivers and bordered by the Pacific Ocean. Lincoln County maintains 13 parks, including campgrounds and waysides.

Most parks and campgrounds are located in the eastern, in-land areas of the County, with Waysides providing public access to the beach. Parks range in size from small boat launch/picnic areas to overnight camping and day-use facilities.
