Whatever the cause is, it remains a mystery. Other theories include carbon dioxide permeating from the earth, a hole in the ozone layer, a magma vortex, the highest dielectric biocosmic radiation known anywhere in the world, and radiesthesia. Some think that it is in fact the spacecraft itself buried deep within the ground.

Some speculate that cones of metal were secretly brought here and buried in our earth as guidance systems for their spacecraft. The Mystery Spot has amazed and perplexed hundreds of thousands of visitors from all over the world, and many return time and time again to experience these puzzling variations of gravity, perspective, and height. The Mystery Spot was discovered in 1939 by a group of surveyors and opened to the public in 1940. But don’t take our word for it, come and decide for yourself! Within the Mystery Spot you will be stunned as your perceptions of the laws of physics and gravity are questioned. It is a circular area of effect around 150 feet or 46 meters in diameter. The Mystery Spot is a gravitational anomaly located in the redwood forests just outside of Santa Cruz, California. I went to their website and read up a bit on this strange place. I googled things to do in Santa Cruz and the Mystery Spot sounded interesting. I had plans to meet some “old” friends at Santa Cruz, decided to come in a day early and have some sort of adventure in the area. I visited the Mystery Spot!ĭifficulty: Easy (but there is one steep section with rails to hold on)

My adventure this week explored unknown territory, containing unexplained and mysterious oddities that defied gravity and logic.
