Neahkahnie Mountain, Mountain summit in Oregon Coast Range, United States.
Neahkahnie Mountain reaches an elevation of 1,683 feet, offering views across Manzanita and Nehalem Bay from its position in Oswald West State Park.
Spanish sailors reportedly buried treasure beneath a deceased crew member on the mountain slopes during the late 16th century, leading to numerous excavation attempts.
The mountain's name originates from Tillamook language, indicating a place of supreme deity, reflecting Native American spiritual connections to this coastal landmark.
Two trail options lead to the summit: a three-mile round trip with 900 feet elevation gain or a 5.1-mile path gaining 1,000 feet elevation.
Archaeological discoveries in the 1870s included inscribed stones and beeswax pieces along the beach, suggesting early Spanish presence in the area.
