We invite you to walk, hike, bike, or horseback ride when you visit RNSP. Over 200 miles of trails weave through a variety of environments, including prairies, old-growth redwood forests, and beaches. Whether it's a day hike or backpack trip you are interested in, there is something available. Elevations at RNSP range from sea level to just over 3,000 feet (1,000 m). Consistently mild temperatures make year-round exploration a possibility. Be aware that trails in the redwoods are often wet and slippery, so bring rain gear for your hike. In winter, the Redwood Creek and Trestle trails may be difficult or impossible to use. Temporary bridges open these trails in summer but are removed for the rainy season. Access to Stout Grove from Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park campground exists only in the summer via seasonal bridges.
Please observe the following regulations: |

Walking
through a redwood grove on a fog-shrouded morning can be an unforgettable
experience. Sounds are reduced to the musical gurgle of water trickling
amongst ferns and mossy rocks. Light ebbs with the somber mist and shafts
of sun hang like cobwebs. Stillness and peace weave their spells upon
the respectful traveler.
No pets, firearms, or motorized vehicles are allowed on trails
