Beautiful, wild place. You need a permit to stay overnight as well as bear canisters. The hike through the sand is brutal but worth it. Plus it's one of the few places you can just be surrounded by nature with yourself and your dog roughing it.
The King Range NCA is the only area along 35 miles of California’s north coast which is still pristine. The landscape is too rugged for highway or road building, hence the title California’s Lost Coast. Backpacking and hiking is the best way to enjoy the sunsets from the beaches with black sand. One must be careful of the rip currents and undertows. We had to wait several minutes to an hour so we can safely get through narrow passage. People actually get hurt and killed when caught in the current. Please use caution ⚠️ and be safe.
Bear cans are mandatory for overnight camping, lastly be cautious of rattle snakes, almost stepped in one.
Such a neat spot with tide pools, seals, and sea lions! The lighthouse is really neat to look at, and there are volunteers inside that answer a lot of questions and have a couple things you can browse through or purchase. Unfortunately you cannot climb to the top of the lighthouse but you can go inside at the bottom. There are lots of picnic tables around this area so you can stop by and enjoy a snack or meal. You can walk down some stairs to the beach and peruse through the tide pools and see the sea lions and seals. Pretty neat spot to stop by if you’re in the area.
Was riding my Duaj Sport dirt bike through Kings Range and it was very scenic and challenging.
Awesome beauty from the majestic tall redwood forests, up to the steep mountains and down to the rugged Lost Coast Trail. This is a wonderful place to bring family and friends or to get lost and enjoy some peace and quiet by yourself.
Truly beautiful forest a little away from the more commonly, overcrowded and pasturized tourist destinations. First time here and will be back, locals are... tolerant at best so respect their home not your vacation expectation.
Amazing opportunity to explore the isolated Lost Coast Trail 🙏🙏🙏 Miles and miles of raw nature that changes after each tide!!! Great life lesson!! …
Beautiful area. I hiked from Little Black Sands to Black Sands Trailhead and up the beach with gorgeous views of the cliffs. Highly recommend for walkers and hikers.
