点评:The trip we took was "Railbikes on the Noyo," the Noyo being the river that runs by Fort Bragg. It's a long trip (25 miles out and back) over relatively flat terrain crisscrossing up the Noyo river on electric-assisted rail cars that both occupants can pedal as little or as much as they want. It was a wonderful full day that featured the magnificent 2nd growth redwood trees throughout the valley. It started drizzly and misty, but that just added to an atmosphere of excitement and mystery, immersing us in the conditions that have allowed these magnificent giants to flourish for thousands of years. However, during our tasty and filling pack lunch at Camp Noyo by the modest Lake Noyo, the sun came out and it was like getting two tours in one, providing us warm, bright and sunny return downriver.
The experience DOES NOT begin in Fort Bragg at the Skunk Train station, but is inland a couple of miles. Be careful as the driveway's on a curve and the sign is on the ground. There's also a 3/4 mile or so hike downhill to the bikes and back up afterward. We're in our 60's and had no problem. Value was terrific for an incredible experience that combined beautiful natural scenery with a bit of exercise.
We were accompanied by our able guides, Xochytl and Ember. Both were friendly, knowledgeable, fun and funny, as was manager Marshall who added his own tales of local color and history. This was one of the best experiences we've ever had and we can't wait to return with family and friends to share in one of the best experiences we've ever had.
翻译:我们这次的旅程是“诺约河铁路自行车之旅”,诺约河是流经布拉格堡的一条河流。这是一段漫长的旅程(往返25英里),在相对平坦的地形上,乘坐电动助力轨道车沿诺约河纵横交错,车上的乘客可以随意踩踏板。这真是美好的一天,山谷中遍布着雄伟的二代红杉。起初,天空飘着蒙蒙细雨,薄雾弥漫,但这更增添了兴奋和神秘的氛围,让我们沉浸在这些雄伟的巨树千百年来蓬勃发展的自然环境中。然而,当我们在诺约湖畔的诺约营地享用美味丰盛的午餐时,太阳出来了,感觉就像一次完成了两次旅行,一路温暖、明亮、阳光明媚地返回下游。
这次体验并非始于布拉格堡的臭鼬火车站,而是在内陆几英里处。小心驾驶,因为车道在弯道上,而且指示牌就在地上。下坡后还要徒步大约四分之三英里才能到达自行车停放处,然后再返回。我们六十多岁了,但完全没问题。这次体验非常精彩,既能欣赏到美丽的自然风光,又能锻炼身体,绝对物超所值。
我们由经验丰富的导游Xochytl和Ember陪同。他们两位都很友好、知识渊博、风趣幽默,经理Marshall也同样如此,他还为我们讲述了当地特色和历史故事。这是我们经历过的最棒的体验之一,我们迫不及待地想和家人朋友一起再来,分享我们经历过的最棒的体验之一。
