The Hupa tribe traditionally inhabited the Pacific Coast region of California, particularly around the Trinity River.

The Hupa tribe, part of the larger group of indigenous peoples known as the Athabaskan family, traditionally lived in the northern part of California, particularly along the Trinity River. They are known for their rich cultural heritage, including basket weaving, beadwork, and intricate ceremonial traditions. The Hupa people relied on the abundant natural resources of the region, such as salmon from the river and acorns from oak trees, to sustain their community. Their traditional way of life included fishing, hunting, and gathering, which formed the foundation of their social and economic systems.
