Getting Outdoors
More than 80 miles of trails crisscross through the park and take you past towering old-growth redwoods, cascading waterfalls, and fern-covered canyons. The Redwood Loop Trail is popular with families and showcases some of the park's most impressive specimens, including 293-foot tall Mother of the Forest. You'll also pass the enormous Chimney Tree which was hollowed out by a forest fire. For a longer hike, hit the final section of the Skyline-to-the-Sea Trail, which stretches from Big Basin Redwoods State Park down to Waddell Beach. As you explore the trail, watch for local wildlife, including deer, bobcats, raccoons, woodpeckers, and Steller’s jays.
