  • A series of hiking trails takes you through this former Redwood forest. The Douglas Firs are jaw-droppingly big enough but it's the boles of the Redwoods which give you some sense of the former glories of this woodland. The Redwood stumps have now thrown up "daughter" trees to give you some sense of their past but it still leaves you aching for a time machine. You'll probably also see the Banana Slug, the World's second biggest slug, just try and avoid treading on them.

Practical Information
