Point Reyes National Seashore

 

Point Reyes National Seashore is the most beautiful, unique, and dramatic landscape I have ever been able to insert myself in. Driving the rural country roads and visiting the farmer’s market  and Bovine Bakery in Point Reyes Station fit my small town personality. I loved climbing over 300 steps down to the lighthouse and seeing  and hearing the elephant seals. This is a place I will come back to.

Point Reyes National Seashore is a vast expanse of protected coastline in Northern California’s Marin County. Beaches here include Wildcat Beach, with the cliffside Alamere Falls. On a rocky headland, the 1870 Point Reyes Lighthouse is a viewpoint for migrating gray whales. The Phillip Burton Wilderness features extensive trails through grassland, firs and pine forest, and up to the peak of Mount Wittenberg.
