Briefly about
the general area:
Man, is there a lot of fun stuff to do in the Coast Ranges. Gold Bluffs Beach is near Crea Trail and is a pretty beach to explore; Fern Canyon is close by, and is a brilliant place. Little Creek flows through this area. There's so much to do here at Crea Trail
that you need to camp here for a while, Blackberry Patch RV Park is a magnificent location for that.
If you're here at Crea Trail, you could check out Brown Creek, and there are some brilliant whitewater spots on Klamath River. You'll need more than a day to explore everything
Crea Trail has to offer, you can camp at Klamath Glen Resort, and whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then, we recommend Redwood Creek. And that's not all you can do here at Crea Trail. At Crea Trail you always meet someone from Crescent City North.
