Muir Woods National Monument

Muir Woods, located just 16 miles north of San Francisco, is a stunning national monument that showcases California’s breathtaking landscape. It is a must-visit destination for those who want to experience the iconic scenery of the state. Step away from the city’s hustle and bustle and immerse yourself in the tranquility of this expansive park. One of the highlights of Muir Woods is its majestic redwood trees, which reach incredible heights. The tallest redwood in the park stands at approximately 258 feet, equivalent to stacking 45 individuals who are six feet tall on top of each other. These redwoods have an average age of 600 to 800 years, and some even older trees can be found within the park.
