Heritage Grove is a majestic old-growth Redwood forest next to Alpine Creek. As you wander under the towering giants, you will feel a sense of awe and tranquility. This unique forest enclave is home to the largest Redwoods in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Many of the grove's massive redwoods were due to be logged until a group of citizens joined together to raise funds to purchase this portion of the forest to preserve the magnificent trees forever. It is truly a special place to visit and appreciate these incredible giants.
