Forestiere Underground Gardens

Forestiere Underground Gardens is now open for the 2025 season! Plan your trip Mid-March through October. 

Sicilian immigrant Baldassare Forestiere spent decades carving this subterranean wonder by hand, earning it recognition as a California Registered Historical Landmark (#916) and a spot on the National Register of Historic Sites. Featured in outlets like The New York Times, HGTV’s Xtreme Gardens, and CNN’s “World’s Coolest Underground Attractions,” these open-air rooms and citrus-filled courtyards invite you to step into a piece of living history, still inspiring visitors over a century later.

Guided tours are also available in Spanish and offer an alternate route for standard wheelchairs at Forestiere Underground Gardens. Call ahead to coordinate tours for accommodations at 559-271-0734.
