Ahjumawi Lava Springs State Park is a unique and remote park located in northeastern California. The park is only accessible by boat, which adds to its secluded and peaceful atmosphere.

The park is known for its pristine waters and diverse wildlife, including ospreys, bald eagles, and black bears. Visitors can go kayaking, fishing, and hiking along the park's many trails. The park is also home to several natural springs and lava tube caves, which are interesting geological features to explore.

One of the park's highlights is the Ja-She Campground, which offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape. The campground is only accessible by boat and requires reservations, but it is well worth the effort for those seeking a unique camping experience.

Interesting facts about the park include its history as a sacred site for the Native American Pit River Tribe, who still have strong cultural ties to the area. The park is also home to one of the largest freshwater springs in the country, which produces over 2 million gallons of water a day.

The best time of year to visit Ahjumawi Lava Springs State Park is during the summer months, when the weather is warm and the water is perfect for swimming and kayaking. However, visitors should be aware that the park can be quite crowded during peak season, so it is best to make reservations in advance.
