About

Cuneo Creek Horse Camp is reserved exclusively for park visitors who bring their horses to ride in Humboldt Redwoods State Park. Situated on an old homestead prairie at the base of a ridge, the campground features five family campsites and two group campsites, surrounded by 100-year-old apple and pear trees. Each family site accommodates up to eight people and two horses, with a picnic table, fire ring, bear locker, and two 12'x12' metal pipe corrals. The campground provides treated water, flush toilets, coin-operated hot showers, a mounting platform, water troughs, tie rails, and a sand rolling pit for horses. Wheelbarrows are provided, but visitors should bring their own pitch forks, hoses, and buckets. The two group sites can accommodate larger parties: Site A holds up to 65 people with 22 corrals, and Site B holds up to 25 people with 12 corrals. Both group sites include picnic tables, bear lockers, oversized fire rings, and group-size barbeque grills. The campground offers access to miles of trails through old-growth and second-growth redwood forests. The park does not have riding stables or offer guided trail rides.
