A short 1.5-mile loop through ancient coast redwoods offering towering trunks, fern-carpeted forest floor, mossy logs and dramatic light shafts when fog or low sun filters through. Best at early morning or late afternoon for soft, directional light and fewer visitors; overcast or foggy days give even, moody tones. Trailhead has parking on Bald Hills Rd; park entrance fee may apply. Trail is mostly dirt with some roots—good for hikers but bring sturdy shoes. Check park rules and seasonal closures
