The most scenic drive in CA with a perfect view of the vast ocean. It’s a refreshing treat to the eyes and the soul to drive along the 17 miles drive along the bay. make sure tyt you tie your hair well as they would be all over the place due to the strong wind.

Go to the nearest state park in the camp, walk for more than an hour and five kilometers. The actual driving distance on the day is 16 kilometers (10 miles). Today's weather (Scotts Valley, CA) Cloudy temperature: 12°-23° C/53°-74° UV index: 9 Humidity: 70% Wind speed: northwest wind 8-16 km/h Sunrise time: 6:24am Sunset time: 8:00pm First visit to Henry Cowell Red Shirt Lin State Park #Collection of Wonderlands around the world #I am a travel player # Discover the color of the journey 🚉 Traffic Raiders: Henry Cowell Redwoods SP is not as big as Big Basin Redwoods SP, but it is very close to my current camp. It takes ten minutes to drive there. I went wrong in the afternoon. I first arrived at the entrance of the campground in the west. I was told that tourists needed to take a few kilometers to the entrance of the park's main entrance in the east. By the way, I learned that the maximum self-style RV allowed in the camp was 35 feet (10.5 meters). The longest tow-mounted RV is 31 feet (9.3 meters) 💰 per capita consumption: the east gate of the park is on Highway 9. After entering the park, you will show your annual card through the toll booth, otherwise you will need to buy a $10 ticket for the day. There is a train station next to the parking lot. It seems to be a special train. The antique locomotive in the 19th century pulls a few cars between the park and Santa Cruz Beach. The ticket is quite expensive, $31 for adults and $26 for children. There are quite a lot of tourists today, so you can see it yourself. ❤ Recommended reason: The visitor center is not big, but the design is very careful. There are many display columns that introduce the relevant knowledge of the redwood forest, and there are many interactive facilities for children to learn with interest. Children can watch and try slowly here, which is easy to take an hour or two. National and state parks in the United States have similar visitor centers, in addition to commercial sales of souvenirs, the main purpose is to introduce the park's natural and environmental protection knowledge to the public, so that children can easily learn natural science in a relaxed environment. This is really worth learning from domestic scenic spots and parks. #Going to the place you want to go #Worth flying scenery

They are all historical redwoods. In the past, the mountain roads were not easy to walk and the roads were narrow. If you drive there, you should pay attention to safety. There are no tickets in the park, only a parking fee of ten yuan, which is quite economical. The scenery goes without saying. Look at the picture.

The castle has two faces. Everyone knows that Jay Chou and Kun Ling are weddings in the castle. My girlfriend knows that they will have a wedding in the castle. I told her that I don't have that much money. But if you want to go to the castle, it is still possible. So we came to the castle stone state park. The thrilling thrill we arrived at the local area by car. The rugged mountain road was very challenging and I arrived safely carefully. After we arrived, we wandered through the castle. It was a bit exciting to find behind the castle a cliff that would sweat coldly at a glance. Walking a mountain road, we saw a strange-looking boulder with many holes on it, which is said to be one of the symbols of the castle, and is therefore called the castle stone. After a little rest, we continued to find that the rocks here are very steep, but there are many people climbing here. Americans really like to be exciting... The guide is here. Castle Stone State Park is a place where many outdoor sports lovers often go, although the road conditions are not particularly good. But it is really suitable for sports. If you want to go, pay attention to safety!
