Jack London State Historic Park, Literary memorial park in Sonoma County, US.
Jack London State Historic Park is a park in Sonoma County, United States, where forests, redwood groves, and hills spread across a wide area. Trails lead through meadows and up to ridges that overlook the valley below.
The writer purchased the property in 1905 and lived here until his death in 1916. A large stone house he commissioned burned down shortly before completion, leaving only ruins visible today.
The writer named his property Beauty Ranch and built experimental farm structures alongside his living quarters. Today, people walk through the gardens he planted and see the stone walls he helped construct with his own hands.
More than 20 miles (32 km) of trails are open for walking, cycling, and riding. Some paths stay level through the lowlands, while others climb to higher ground for wider views.
An unusual pig farming facility shows how the owner experimented with technical innovations. Individual pens still have the old automatic feeding systems that were advanced for their time.
