Recommended parks and places for redwood hiking and exploring

If you are coming to see the redwoods, my suggestion is the north redwood parks of Humboldt and Del Norte counties. With a limit of 2 - 8 days, the redwoods farthest north are the ones to visit. Muir Woods near San Francisco is nice but not in the same league. Even if you have 10 days for a vacation, keep the Humboldt and Del Norte redwoods in your sights for the ultimate in redwoods exploring.

Certainly acquire maps and contact the visitor information centers. See my main redwood page for visitor centers and hiking map sources. Suggestions below are parks & trails followed by comments about taking dogs, plus the best time to visit. Feedback from an expert redwood forest explorer is included.

If you are not restricted to the San Francisco area, keep your sights set on the far noth redwoods: California version of an Alaska Wilderness trip. From San Francisco, its only 220 miles to Humboldt Redwoods. Just a few hours.

Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park:

This park is at the north end for California redwood parks. Its west border is almost adjacent to Crescent City, and you can enter the park using Howland Hill Road or Highway 199. Howland Hill Road is an old state road through the midst of the park.

In this park, some of the best places to visit are:

• Stout Grove
• Simpson Reed Discovery Trail
• Boy Scout Redwood Trail
• Howland Hill Road
• Mill Creek Trail

Those are my top picks for starters. On rare occassions in winter, Howland Hill Rd. is closed due to storms. That could isolate you from Boy Scout Tree Trail. Faced with that rare occurance, hike in from Hy. 199 on the Hiouchi Trail to where it meets Mill Creek Trail. At that point, you could also cross over Mill Creek into Stout Grove, too, but the water is higher in winter. Unless you are willing to bare foot up through water up half way up to your knees, carrying footwear. In the wet season, I say its worth packing thongs if you have a hking stick, to try and cross to Stout Grove. But the road is usually open aside from a week or two maintenance grading that happens near late June depending on weather.

Crescent City is a full-service city with lodging, food, clothes, airport, visitor center, dining and more. If you have extra hours, travel east on Hy. 199 along the scenic Smith River for 10 or 20 miles. If you have an extra day to spare, the Oregon coast toward Brookings and Gold Beach is gorgeous. Consider maybe 50 miles of Oregon coastline: among the finest coastal scenery along the west coast.

Del Norte Coast Redwoods State Park:

When you leave Crescent City headed south, highway 101 leads up into this park almost immediately. There are several turnouts for parking with excellent views of the Pacific Ocean.

• Damnation Creek Trail - 4 mile round trip. Moderately vigorous. Trail reaches ocean.

To fit the the most in one visit to the redwoods, this is the one trail I will list for this park. There is a huge turnout for it, but the trailhead sign is hard to see, and the highway sign may be missing. The trailhead is supposed to be by mile marker 16. The trailhead turnout is 8 miles south of where Humboldt Rd. and Enderts Beach Rd. meet Highway 101 by Crescent City, so set your odometer there. Basically, head about 8 miles south on 101 from the south end of the long beach at Crescent City.

Typically, Damanation Creek Trail had great Rhododendron blossoms most years. Late May into June. 2010 was a particulary bleak year for Rhody flowers. Other than exceptions, its well decorated with blossoms. The trail is well-reported by many people all through the year for general redwood hiking.

This park, from highway and trail, often has fog among the redwoods with sunrise or sunset shining through the canopy. Best chance for those kind of photos are get up very early or catch it late day when clouds are few but fog is likely. It's hit and miss sometimes.

Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park:

This is the next major old growth redwood park to the south. It is very close to the town of Orick, California. On the way along Highway 101, there is a Trees of Mystery stop along the way near Klamath, and its probably worth a stop if you like touristy stuff. The American Indian artifact museum is one of the best private collections and there's no charge for that part of it. The gondola does not go through big redwoods. It's basically a ride through small evergreens to hilltop view.

In Prairie Creek, some of the best places to visit are:

• James Irvine Trail: 1 or 2 miles or the full 9 mile loop to the beach. Can combine with Miners Ridge Trail.
• Big Tree across Drury Parkway from the visitor center. Near parking area.
  • 1 minute walk in ... a fast shot-in-the-arm giant redwood experience ... truly huge though
• Brown Creek Loop Trail ... very ancient feeling
• Arco Giant Redwood: look for a path / road at the south end of the prairie stretching into forest
• Prairie Creek Trail starting near visitor center: at least 1 or 2 miles and more. Creek and big redwoods
• Fern Canyon ~ see note below

Fern Canyon is nifty. But it's either a 9 mile round trip hike, or you will need to travel around the park on roads to get there. If you are accustomed to destinations like Eagle Creek Trail in Oregon, the Grand Canyon or similar, I'd suggest skipping Fern Canyon if going there means sacrificing spots like Brown Creek Trail or James Irvine Trail. Fern Canyon begins with Red Alder and Sitka Spruce, and unless you hike east deeper into the forest, you will cut down on the Coast Redwood adventure. I consider this canyon more of an add-on to lots of other redwood trail stuff.

So far, I've been able to get fuel in Orick during daytime. And you can get fuel in Klamath. Unless you will be near Prairie Creek or Redwood National Park for more than a day, I would skip lodging in Orick, and stay near Eureka, Fortuna, or maybe Crescent City, which is still only 20 minutes or so away. Eureka is more like 45 minutes. No phone signal in Prairie Creek redwood park. But you can get signal in Orick consistently. Restaurant options are maybe a step above greasy spoon. Last omelette I had there ... rather than the cheese firming upon cool-down, that cheese remained as runny as uncooked egg whites ... no kidding.
