Fun Facts

The park houses the Stratosphere Giant, which was once the tallest known living redwood, measuring over 370 feet tall.

This scenic highway runs through the park and offers a 31-mile drive surrounded by towering redwoods, providing a breathtaking experience.

Humboldt Redwoods State Park spans over 53,000 acres, making it the third-largest state park in California.

The park is home to a diverse range of wildlife, including black bears, Roosevelt elk, and over 200 species of birds.

The park was established in 1921, largely due to the efforts of the Save the Redwoods League, to protect the ancient redwoods from logging.

The park's coastal location provides a temperate climate with frequent fog, which helps sustain the lush redwood forests.

The Humboldt Redwoods Visitor Center offers educational exhibits and information about the park's natural and cultural history.

The park features over 100 miles of trails, catering to hikers of all levels, from easy walks to challenging treks.
