Great views, and secluded

Narrow road but I made it up in my 02 Sierra with a 13ft travel trailer. Amazing views and no one around for miles

Easy steep dry gravel road with huge drop offs

The road is steep gravel with many switchbacks that were easy to do in our 24ft van coming from the Humbug State Park entrance. About 12 minute slow drive to a very scenic turnout on the hilltop where the area looks to be immediately cleared of trees and large enough to turn around. Likely park 4-5 vehicles if you didn't mind squeezing together. A slight uneven slope but manageable if you don't have leveling blocks.

You can see the ocean behind the adjacent hill tops. And all the other areas are forested that you look out to other than the drive in.

Coming here was a bit nerve racking with the end of the trail having the trees cleared out for a few miles and just a steep drop-off to your left. Wouldn't come up if it rained as I would feel unsafe for some of the road edges look to be a potential risk for washing out.

Beautiful View, Secluded

Drive up China mountain road winding back and forth. We stopped at a spot that wasn’t marked but about a mile and half short of this marked spot. It had the best views. We decided to continue to the marked spot and was also gorgeous but not as good I would recommend the first one.

Quiet with a great view

Getting here was pretty easy. The road winds up the mountain, a bit nerve wracking on the narrow parts but overall quite an easy drive up. A couple bumps here and there but not bad. No issues for the Promaster. Great views from a couple of spots, super quiet.
