Visitors are literally dwarfed by nature at Redwood National and State Parks, where ancient redwoods seem to touch the sky and 3-meter high ferns emerge from primeval, mist-shrouded groves. Spread over 53,000 hectares, the park was founded in 1968 to protect the majestic trees from the ravages of the logging industry and now serves to inspire amazement in the backpackers, hikers and dreamers who flock to its trails. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1980, RNSP is a place to be humbled by nature.

Redwood National and State Parks in Northern California are home to the tallest trees on Earth. This joint U.S. National Park and California state park also boasts vast prairies, oak woodlands, wild rivers and about 64 kilometers of unspoiled coastline, all supporting a rich mosaic of wildlife diversity and cultural traditions.

Each of the parks has its own rewards, including beautiful hiking trails. For stunning redwood views, put boots to the ground along the Trillium Falls Trail in the National Park or the Prairie Creek Trail in Prairie Creek. You can also experience the stunning scenery from your car along the Newton B. Drury Scenic Parkway. Along the way, keep your eyes peeled for fascinating critters that call the parks home, such as black bears, elk and mountain lions.
