Hendy Woods State Park, State park in Mendocino County, United States.
The 816-acre park contains two major groves of ancient redwoods, with trees reaching heights of 300 feet and ages of 1000 years.
Joshua Hendy, an English blacksmith who moved to California during the Gold Rush, left this land to his nephews with protection conditions in 1891.
The Pomo people lived in this region for thousands of years before Russian fur traders arrived and took control of their territories.
The park features 92 campsites across two campgrounds, four cabins, and 25 picnic areas along the banks of the Navarro River.
A man known as the Hendy Hermit, Petrov Zailenko, lived within the park boundaries for over ten years during the 1960s and 1970s.
