This is the northern beginning of the Avenue of the Giants, the old Redwood Highway, while the nearby parallel new coastal Hwy 1 is turning into a split multi-lane freeway …

Avenue of the Giants. We rode it by bike and wouldn't have wanted it any other way. Since the freeway runs parallel, it was relatively quiet and not very busy with cars. If you are in the area: an absolute must!

This 2.4-mile nature trail is one of the most beautiful trails in Humboldt Redwoods State Park. Many photographic opportunities can be found along this redwood forest trail. As you walk the cool, shady path, you'll spot a bench dedicated to Ralph W. Chaney for rediscovering the Dawn Redwood in China in 1948 and bringing the seeds to the United States.
