Tips

September 1, 2023

Redwood, oak, conifers, sycamore cottonwood, maple and willow trees surround this lower portion of the Big Sur River, making for a beautiful place to take a few photos, especially on a hot day. Two bridges cross over from this location, depending on your path. One is a steel bridge that will take you to Buzzards Roost Loop Trail, and a seasonal bridge that loops around to continue the short Nature Trail loop.
