Location Details

Little River Blowhole Trail

United States / Little River, California
Location ID: #10128109

A little known trail that's habors a hidden secret of natural beauty: a big sinkhole carved out by thousands of years of erosion. At the bottom, ocean waves roll through a cave onto a small secluded beach. It is only accessible by rope and offers ocean access for divers and Kayakers. The trail circles around the sinkhole, branches off through a bishop pine forest, and to a few outlooks with ocean views.

Located behind the Little River Cemetery, the trail is a public access easement managed by the Mendocino Land Trust.
