GenieSummary
Russian Gulch State Park is a serene and beautiful campground located near the Mendocino area of Northern California. It offers a variety of camping options, from individual sites to group sites, and is surrounded by lush foliage and a creek running through the campground. The sites are well spaced and private, and each site includes a picnic table and fire ring. The bathrooms are clean and well-maintained, and there are showers and flush toilets available. The campground also offers a host of activities, such as hiking, biking, and exploring the nearby beach. The beach is a short walk away and is protected, making it a great spot to launch kayaks or explore the tidepools. There is also a Fern Canyon Trail and a waterfall trail located nearby. The campground is busy on weekends with tourists, but during the week it is peaceful and secluded. It is also conveniently located near the coastal towns of Mendocino and Fort Bragg.
From The Campground
This is one of the few parks along the coast that includes portions of the forest to the east. Along its three-mile length is evidence of an extensive logging operation that seems to indicate that this was the location of an active mill. The Park contains a total area of 1,162 acres with 7,630 feet of ocean frontage. With its rugged headlands thrusting out into the Pacific, the park is thought of by many as the north coast’s rival of Point Lobos. One of the many features of the headlands is the “blow hole.” Its formation was made by the incessant pounding of waves against the coastal headlands. A tunnel has been formed which comes inland about 200 feet, and at its end the earth has caved away, forming a hole 100 feet across and 60 feet deep; one can look into this flower and plant-lined pit and watch the surging sea at high tide. Or hike inland through Fern Canyon to the 36-foot-high waterfall that’s spectacular after the winter rains.
