Fodor's Expert Review Mystery Spot
Santa Cruz
Other Attraction
Hokey tourist trap or genuine scientific enigma? Since 1940, curious throngs baffled by the Mystery Spot have made it one of the most visited attractions in Santa Cruz. The laws of gravity and physics don't appear to apply in this tiny patch of redwood forest, where balls roll uphill and people stand on a slant. On weekends and holidays, it's wise to purchase tickets online in advance.
