Humboldt Redwoods State Park

Humboldt Redwoods State Park spans 53,000 acres along the Eel River, containing 17,000 acres of ancient coastal redwood forests and numerous hiking trails.

The park establishment in 1921 began with the dedication of Colonel Raynal C. Bolling Memorial Grove, marking the start of redwood forest preservation efforts.

The Visitor Center offers educational programs about redwood ecosystems, local Native American heritage, and regional conservation through exhibits and guided tours.

The park maintains 250 campsites, 100 miles of trails for hiking and biking, and provides facilities for both day visitors and overnight stays throughout the year.

The Rockefeller Forest within the park contains the largest remaining continuous old-growth coastal redwood forest on Earth, featuring trees over 2,000 years old.
