フンボルト郡周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

This grove was dedicated by 1969 President Nixon to the former first lady, Lady Bird Johnson, as a tribute to all her conservation work. At the trailhead, there are restrooms, water, and parking.

The Newton Drury Parkway closes to cars the 1st Sat of each month Oct-May. Very quite in the redwood forests as you cycle by (or coast if you're headed N to S).

The Founders Tree Coast Redwood stands in Founders Grove, not far from Avenue of the Giants, and marks a worthwhile story. There is 1.3 miles of trail, but the main attraction is located near the parking lot. The nature of the area makes the word hiking more appropriate than hiking. The place is quite crowded in July and August but has its charm that makes it difficult to miss this time of year. The circular hiking trail requires your attention so that you don't leave it. But absolutely worth it because you are surrounded by giant trees. Fallen trees give you a sense of dimension, from root to top.

One of the most iconic and enduring hallmarks of American street kitsch is the drive-thru tree - only possible with the massive scale of California's redwoods. Of two known tree tunnels in Central California, the one in Tuolumne Grove is through a dead tree, and the Wawona tree in Yosemite fell in 1969. However, there are three drive-through redwoods still going strong on California's Redwood Coast, all of which are operated as tourist attractions.

The legends of Bigfoot stretch back throughout recorded history and cover the world. In North America - and particularly the Northwest - one can hear stories of seven-foot-tall hairy men stalking the forest, occasionally scaring campers, loggers, hikers, and the like. Bigfoot is known by many titles with many different cultures, although the name Bigfoot is generally attributed to the mountainous western region of North America. The common name Sasquatch comes from the Salish Sasquits, while the Algonquin of the north-central region of the continent refer to a Witiko or Wendigo. Other nations tell of a large creature, very similar to a human, but imbued with special powers and properties. The Ojibway of the Northern Plains believed that the Rugaru appeared in times of danger, and other nations agreed that the hairy apparition was a messenger of warning, telling man to change his ways.

Hidden Springs Campground is located on Avenue of the Giants, approximately 1 mile south of Myers Flat and 5 miles south of the visitor center. The campground is open Memorial Day through Labor Day weekend. Hidden Springs has 137 sites in a mixed forest setting that offer privacy. Two hiking trails are available near the campground, one leads from the campground and the other is directly across the Avenue of the Giants and leads to a great swimming hole on the South Fork of the Eel River. Site-specific reservations are available from just before Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend. Some sites are available for one night on a first come, first served basis.

“The Pinc,” as the new owners now affectionately call it, has seen plenty of history through its jewel-toned stained glass windows at 202 M Street in Eureka. Located on Humboldt Bay, the majestic, historic home was built in 1889 by lumber magnate William Carson as a wedding gift for his son J. Milton Carson and his wife Mary Amelia (Bell) Carson. William lived across the street in the famous Carson mansion, considered one of the most magnificent Victorian homes in America. The J. Milton Carson House, known locally as “The Pink Lady” over the years, is crowned with iconic, ornamental Victorian features. Famous as a classic example of the Queen Anne architectural style, its large bay windows, delicate cornices, graceful spires, and lace gingerbread trim attract tourists and architecture lovers alike.

Dyerville is a former settlement in Humboldt County. It was located at an elevation of 246 feet on the northwest bank of the confluence of the Eel River and the South Fork Eel River 3 miles (4.8 km) west of Camp Grant. The earliest known development in Dyerville was the operation of a ferry in the 1870s. Dyerville had its own post office from April 17, 1890 until November 30, 1933, when it was moved to South Fork. Dyerville was a stagecoach stop, shipping port and crossroads town that played an important role in the early settlement of this redwood area. It was destroyed by the flood of 1955.
