2 Nights & 3 Days in Humboldt: An Emerald Triangle Experience

The Cannabis Trail

With deep community roots and ancient redwood groves, Humboldt is full

of adventure and magic.

○ Day 1:

■ Grab lunch along the way in Garberville and be sure to stop by the

Southern Humboldt Visitors Center to learn more about the first hemp

store, Hemp Connection, and the work of Marie Mills at their Cannabis

Trail landmark.

■ The redwoods get bigger as you go further north along the 101, and you’ll

have lots of opportunities to stop and see them. Take a slight detour off

the highway and explore the Avenue of the Giants for a close up look at

the majestic trees and plenty of opportunities to pull over and hug one.

■ If you want to explore the redwoods a bit more deeply, Humboldt

Redwoods State Park is a great place to explore, as well as Redwood

National Park. Keep an eye out, this is BigFoot country!

■ Work up an appetite in the woods? As you head north, stop in Fortuna for

lunch at Eel River Brewing, the first certified organic brewery.

■ Check into your hotel in Eureka or Arcata - both towns offer gorgeous

historical architecture, adorable cafes and restaurants, and a great

selection of wellness and outdoor activities.

○ Day 2:

■ Grab some breakfast and head to Humboldt Cannabis Tours to hop on the

van and explore Humboldt’s legacy farms, nurseries, or cannabis shops

and lounges. You’ll want to book your tour ahead of time so the team can

plan the perfect experience for you. While you’re at the tour depot, a

landmark on The Cannabis Trail, you can learn about the work of Douglas

Fir and Lawrence Ringo in Humboldt County.

■ If possible, ask Matt at Humboldt Cannabis Tours to take you to the

beautiful Huckleberry Hill Farms, which was the first landmark to be

named on The Cannabis Trail. Johnny Casali’s story of resilience and

community is a tear-jerker, very moving.

■ Once you arrive back from your amazing tour, grab dinner at one of the

many delicious restaurants in Eureka such as Tavern 1888, and head back

down the 101 south to Benbow Inn which is also a great spot for dinner.

○ Day 3:

■ The historic Benbow Inn has an onsite bar and restaurant, and a big patio

opening up to the Eel River which is a great place to enjoy your morning

coffee and cannabis ritual.

■ Heading south, stop to explore Richardson Grove, a beautiful redwood

park that straddles Highway 101 that has been a battleground for

environmental conservation after attempts to widen the highway.
