Russian Gulch State Park

Near: Mendocino
Trip Type: Short Walk
Elevation: 0 - 50 ft
Surface: Dirt and Paved Road
Distance: About 1 mile total
Vegetation: Forest and Coastal Scrub



On our recent visit to the Mendocino area, we camped and explored a bit at Russian Gulch State Park.  Most of the park trails are off limits to dogs, but the small park beach and a short trail on ocean side bluffs are open to dogs on leash.  There's not really enough here to be a destination in and of itself, but it's a great stop if you're in the area.  The campgrounds are very pleasantly sited along the small creek through the gulch, and the bluff trail offers some classic dramatic California coast views.





















Giant Sink Hole!
