Humboldt County
Location and surroundings
Garberville lies near the exit from Highway 101, by the first redwood forest to be found south of Eureka, Richardson Grove State Park. It is only a few miles from the southern end of the Avenue of the Giants, the old motorway to Eureka. This runs parallel to the U
.S. 101, and crosses a 33mi/52km-long redwood area, including, for example, Humboldt Redwoods State Park, 15mi/25km north of Garberville. Thanks to its location and its variety of hotels, motels and restaurants, Garberville is an ideal base for trips into the surrounding redwood groves.
