Take the coastal route up thru the red woods, Orygun coast to Lincoln City, then east over to Salem.

would that be an off road trail? and where would you camp?

You travel on Hyw 101 and you well see hundreds of logging roads off the route. You could travel much of the way on dirt but with all the late snow it may be difficult. You need a good paper map to plan your route. Camp anyplace you want, find a wide spot on the trail.
