All in shades of almost leveled hike( walk ). Good area for a hot day.
This is an excellent place for hiking if you want tall shade-giving trees on either side of the trails. The trails are very pleasant to walk along during summer. There are many places to sit and picnic. There are also many camping grounds. Plenty of restrooms too.
Had my catalytic converter stolen while parked here today. Just a heads up. Love this park though!
Nice redwoods, although not as big as the ones on the north coast. There is a flat, road-like trail along the creek and steeper narrower trails go up the hillsides. You get out of the redwoods and into some sun if you go to the top of the ridge.
Very pretty place, gets very busy quick though. Lots of families with kids and larger groups of people. Hiked the Stream trail, to Redwood peak and back using the West Ridge trail, 3h30 in total with a 20min break at the top.
