MacKerricher State Park

MacKerricher State Park

MacKerricher State Park is on the ocean front three miles north of Fort Bragg. The park includes low ocean bluffs, extensive tidepools, miles of beaches, and the Haul Road, a paved walking and biking trail from the north edge of Fort Bragg along the coast through the Park.  The reconstructed Pudding Creek Trestle connects hikers/bikers from Glass Beach Drive, Fort Bragg, along the Haul Road into the main part of the park.

MacKerricher is open year-round and has 140 campsites, plus a Visitor Center which has many exhibits.
The skeleton of a California Grey Whale is on display next to the Visitor Center. 
The park is free for day use and popular for many outdoor activities, including birding, tidepooling, fishing, walking, biking, and boating on Cleone Lake.
Harbor Seals and other marine mammals live in the ocean off shore, as do a wide variety of coastal and migrating birds.
