About this race

Welcome to Yachats, West Coast Gravel!

You’ve arrived at the “Gem of the Oregon Coast,” where towering Sitka spruces meet the crashing Pacific, and every sunset paints the sky in unforgettable hues.

This route is 20-30 minutes quicker than our Saturday event, with a remote start and finish 1 mile from Yachats! You're in for a special day!

Discover Your Coastal Playground

  • Yachats State Recreation Area: Just steps from town, explore tide pools, picnic on seaside rocks, or simply listen to the surf roll in.
  • Cape Perpetua: Drive a few miles south for panoramic ocean vistas, ancient forest trails like Amanda’s Trail, and Thor’s Well’s dramatic show of nature’s power.
  • The Little Log Church & Museum: A charming historic venue perfect for a quiet moment of reflection—or even an impromptu photo op.

Savor Local Flavors

  • Fresh Seafood: Fuel your adventures with fresh-caught seafood and local brews.
  • Dining Options: Don’t miss Drift Inn or many other tempting places to dine for a true taste of the coast.

Gather & Celebrate

  • Kicking Off: Tonight, we’ll kick off at the Yachats Commons, the heart of community life—complete with ocean-inspired ambiance, local art, and excellent acoustics for our Graveo gathering.
  • Community Spirit: We’re thrilled to host West Coast Gravel in our seaside hamlet. May your time here be filled with awe-inspiring landscapes, memorable connections, and the warm hospitality that makes Yachats so special.

Welcome home to the Oregon Coast!
