Come join us on an exclusive six hour back-country tour reaching into the remote edges of Humboldt County's unknown world of forest wilderness, prairie grasslands, and isolated homesteads. Come join us for an off road excursion filled with spectacular mountain scenery and dramatic wilderness views. See California's longest running mountain ridge (57 miles) and experience the grandeur of mountainous Redwood, Spruce and Fir forests. Traversing our way to the top most ridge, we will overlook 40 mile views, covering a million acres of remote and majestic back-country wilderness. Once there we will spend an hour exploring a remote mountain wilderness Chalet and its self-sufficient life-style. The mountain-top Swisse Chalet will also provide lunch.

As we 4x4 through the dense forests, your back-country wilderness guide will entertain you with the history and experiences of early logging and frontier settlements of the region, all the while pointing out forest fauna and wildlife. The last leg of your back-country safari will bring us down to the Van Duzen River, where we will follow it through groves of Giant Redwoods until we once again emerge into the Humboldt Bay region. Allow 6 hours for this tour.
If time is short and you cannot accommodate a 6 hour tour, we can offer you an abbreviated tour which, while covering significantly less, can be accomplished in three hours. We still make it to the Wilderness Chalet, but skip the luncheon.
This BACK-COUNTRY WILDERNESS SAFARI is offered as an optional addition to your stay, when you book a room for two or more days. The rate for the six hour tour (lunch included) is $330, with a maximum of four people. The rate for the abbreviated three hour tour is $165. Both rates are in addition to your normal Room Rates at the Victorian Mansion. As space is limited, advance reservations are recommended if you have an interest in this unique experience.
For more information about the wonders and opportunities of this mystical and remote mountain wilderness, ask innkeepers Doug and Lily Vieyra - they can provide you with maps, brochures, contacts and more!
