North Access & Tour Info station - Avenue of the Giants

Highlight • Rest Area

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 that misses all the highlights. The info post here has a large info panel like the next 8 stops (each with different specific info) and a brochure box providing free 2-page paper maps describing the details of those highlights. Note, while the map has North on the top as usual, the stops are numbered from south to north maybe because most people arrive from the South, so read them from the bottom up ;-)

Big Trees Day Use Area, Humboldt Redwoods State Park

Highlight • Forest

Big Trees is probably the most popular place within Humboldt Redwoods State Park, and with good reason, as it is home to "Giant Tree" once recognized as the tallest of the Coastal Redwoods. From here you can take a number of trails to fit you schedule, ability, and fitness level. Anything from a quick 5 minute top to 20+ mile overnight trips can be had from here.
