Jack London State Park
Description:
About 40 acres of famous author, Jack London’s original 1,400-acre Beauty Ranch
was acquired by the state. The original park included London’s grave, the ruins
ofWolf Houdse, and Charmian London’s House of Happy Walls. Over the years additional
acreage has been added. Today the park contains more than 800 acres, including several
of the ranch buildings and the cottage where London produced much of his later work.
A 3/4 mile walk takes visitors to a dam, lake and bathhouse built by London. Other
hikes lead up through fir and oak woodlands to views of the Valley of the Moon.
Another trail leads to Jack London’s grave and to “Wolf House,” London’s dream house,
which was destroyed by fire in 1913.
