Arnold is nestled in beautiful Calaveras County. Beyond being known as "the last city before you get to Bear Valley", Arnold has several historic places of interest for all to enjoy. Calaveras Big Trees State Park, which is only a couple of miles outside of Arnold, boasts trees over 300ft tall, and well over 2,000 years old.
White Pines Community Lake, The Sierra Nevada Logging Museum, New Spicer Meadow Reservoir, and The Stanislaus National Forest are other places of interest that help to create the serene beauty that the city of Arnold is famous for.
