About this program

Journey into the heart of Muir Woods National Monument on a 1-hour ranger-led tour with a national park ranger and naturalists. See the forest through the eyes of an expert as they expand your understanding of this diverse ecosystem and help you observe its rich complexity.

Covered topics vary and include old growth redwood charecteristics, forest and fire ecology, park history, native stewardship, and contemporary conservation practices. This tour is a great opportunity to ask questions and make seasonal observations of flowers, plants, and animals.

Typically, this program traverses .5 miles from the Visitor Center to Bridge 3 near Cathedral Grove, though guides may extend or abreviate the milage. The path is a flat, firm surface accessible to most mobility devices. All ages are welcome.

For day-of scheduling changes, including additional talk times, other programs, and possible cancellations, please view signage at the park entry or ask Visitor Center staff. For a trail map, please visit the link below.
