Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve Hike & Lunch at The Farmhand

READ EVERYTHING BELOW - NO CELL SERVICE AT THE PARK

When you arrive at the park and pay the admission fee at the kiosk, drive all the way to the back of the park until you cannot drive anymore. You will see picnic tables and parking near a chainlink fence. The trailhead is over a mile into the park from the Visitor's Center, so DO NOT PARK AT THE VISITOR'S CENTER unless you want a 1+ mile warm up hike.

Let’s spend a day under the towering giants of Armstrong Redwoods, where the sunlight filters through ancient branches and the air is fresh with the scent of the forest. We’ll wander the serene paved paths together, soaking in the beauty of trees that have stood for centuries, and share great conversation along the way. Bring your sense of wonder, a comfy pair of shoes, and let’s make some memories in one of California’s most magical groves.
