Twelve Foot Davis Gravesite

Perched above the Town of Peace River, the Twelve Foot Davis Gravesite offers breathtaking views and a deep connection to the area’s storied past. This scenic spot honors Henry Fuller Davis, a trader who made his mark on history by literally striking gold on a 12-foot claim along the Peace River in the 1860s.

The lookout park is thoughtfully designed for visitors to enjoy both the natural beauty and historical significance of the area. Stroll along well-maintained pathways, explore informative interpretive panels that tell the tale of Davis and the region, and take a break at one of the picnic benches. For those who love a treasure hunt, geocaching opportunities add an extra layer of adventure to your visit.

Convenient parking is available, making it easy to access this stunning viewpoint. Just a short distance away, you can also explore the nearby Pat’s Creek walking trail, which offers a serene and scenic escape into nature.

Whether you're here to soak in the views, learn about local history, or simply enjoy a peaceful day outdoors, the Twelve Foot Davis Gravesite is a must-visit destination.
