"Home to the Rockefeller Forest—the world’s largest remaining contiguous grove of old-growth coastal redwoods—this park protects roughly 17,000 acres of ancient trees and offers iconic drives and walks beneath towering trunks. Visitors can drive the 32-mile Avenue of the Giants for scenic views, stroll the Gould Grove Nature Trail beneath 300-foot-tall redwoods, and enjoy more than 100 miles of trails plus opportunities for hiking, biking, and boating along the South Fork Eel River." - Evie Carrick Evie Carrick Evie Carrick is a writer and editor who’s lived in five countries and visited well over 50.
