Loop A Washrooms is a short, easy connector trail in Nehalem Bay State Park in Oregon, managed by city land. It is a gentle out-and-back route that links to restroom facilities, making it a practical stop for mountain bikers of all skill levels. The trail is only about 0.2 miles long, with no elevation gain, and its smooth, flat terrain suits beginners and families as well as riders looking for a quick warm-up before heading out on longer rides. The trail is rated easy, and its green circle difficulty rating reflects its accessible nature. Dogs are not allowed here, so plan on leaving them behind. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Tillamook show July and August highs around 68 to 69°F with only about seven wet days a month, while winter months bring highs in the low 50s and rain on most days. Nearby, Elk Run Trail and the Nehalem River Dike Trail are both within about 2.5 miles for hikers. Mountain bikers can head to the South Neah-Kah-Nie Mountain Trail, about 3 miles away, and paddlers will find Short Sand Creek roughly 5 miles off.
