The mounstrous redwoods of Muir Woods National Monument tower higher and wider than any other. Giants at over 260 feet tall, the 1,000 year-old treasures still thrive today and will bring any visit to the city to greater heights. Located 12 miles north of the Golden Gate Bridge, this stunning preserve generates enthusiasm for nature in every group.
Several preordained hiking trails are walk-in friendly and range from quick and easy to time consuming and challenging. Stroll through the beauty of time's handiwork and view the jaw-dropping natural surroundings that are paradise on earth. The monument is open year-round from 8 a.m. to sunset. Avoid the crowds and visit early in the morning or late in the afternoon. A stop in the café at the center of the monument will recharge you with deli sandwiches and treats.
