About the Tour
Your journey through Muir Woods National Monument begins high above the towering redwoods, where Mount Tamalpais offers sweeping views of the surrounding landscapes. Hear about the region’s unique geology, climate, and wildlife as you take it all in.
From there, follow the twists and turns of the Panoramic Hwy, a route that treats you to dramatic overlooks and lush hillsides. As you drive, discover how this scenic corridor links the mountain’s majesty with the ancient forests that lie ahead.
Next, continue onto Muir Woods Rd. Listen as your guide illuminates the ecology of the coastal redwoods, explains why these trees thrive here, and details how conservation efforts protected them from logging. Watch for deer, birds, and other creatures that call this habitat home along this winding road.
Finally, step beneath the cathedral-like canopy of Muir Woods itself. Surrounded by giant trunks and filtered sunlight, learn how these old-growth redwoods stood the test of time, surviving storms and centuries of change. Hear about the individuals who fought to preserve this remarkable grove and what makes these trees extraordinary.
