RV rental Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park, CA: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

The Overlook Trail is one of the most popular in Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park. At only 0.5 miles, it is an easy hike and, as the name suggests, takes you to a stunning viewpoint of McWay Falls, one of the most unique and majestic falls along the coastline. The 80-foot freshwater falls tumbles down a granite cliff and into a picturesque cove. The fact that the trail is wheelchair friendly means that it can be enjoyed by all. Another good hike in the park is the Partington Cove Trail, which is a mile loop. The steep but short hike that takes you over a bridge and down into a 60ft tunnel. Scuba diving is another great activity to enjoy in the park. However, this is an advanced diving site, which means that the water entrance and exit can be hazardous, and a valid dive permit must be obtained. In December and January, people come from all over to go camping at Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park and make use of the short but impressive whale watching window. The beach is a fantastic spot to keep an eye out for the gray whales that are migrating southwards, many of which pass close to the shore. If you time it right, it can be quite a spectacular sight. In March and April, they can then sometimes be seen heading back the other way. Harbor seals and sea otters can also be spotted in the cove, so be sure to bring your binoculars along with you in your RV rental.
