Fun Facts

The Monterey cypress trees that form the tunnel were planted in the 1930s to create a picturesque entrance to the KPH Radio Station, a historic maritime radio station.

The alignment of the trees creates a natural archway that frames the light beautifully, making it a favorite spot for photographers.

It is located within the Point Reyes National Seashore, which is known for its rich history and diverse ecosystems.

The station, accessed through the Cypress Tree Tunnel, was crucial for maritime communication and played a significant role during the war.

The surrounding area is home to a variety of bird species, making it a popular spot for bird enthusiasts.

These trees are native to the California coast and provide essential habitat for local wildlife.
