The Skunk Train
Admission includedBoarding the Skunk Train in Fort Bragg, you step into a piece of living California history. The scent of coastal air gives way to the cool, cathedral quiet of ancient redwood groves as the train winds inland through the Noyo River canyon. Towering trees press close to the tracks, and filtered light dapples the forest floor in ways that feel genuinely remote. The Skunk Train earns its nickname from the distinctive smell of its early gas-powered engines, a detail locals still recount with affection.
