Hike the Parks: Redwood National & State Parks: Best Day Hikes, Walks, and Sights

Great travel book. Very helpful and easy to use. Loved the smaller size to fit into my hydration pack. Thick pages and heavyweight cover to prevent damage when turning pages.

Though nothing can actually prepare you for the stunning Coast Redwoods in Northern California--their beauty will quite literally stop your breath--this book was extremely useful. It's a guide for spending your time wisely, The easier trails, and the wheelchair accessible paths (yes! you can visit the redwoods with a wheelchair or walker) are noted, as are the more rigorous hikes. Places nearby to stay are noted. Amazon delivered this book in less than three days. Highly recommended.

Description of text is unclear, had to download and return because it did not cover the area I needed. Otherwise looks like a fine guide.

Loved the accurate descriptions of the hikes. The map was most helpful to make the most of our time visiting the most trails on our short vacation. Highly recommend!!

This was a gift for my daughter in law before a trip to the Redwoods. She used it to plan where she'd go and found it very helpful. She bought another book in this series for a different location and liked that one as well

Just want to mention that the title of this book is correct AND misleading. Uninformed, you might think, as I did, that you're getting a complete list of hikes in ALL the redwoods. However, be advised:"Redwood National and State Parks (RNSPs) are a unique state/federal partnership that includes Jedediah Smith Redwoods, Del Norte Coast Redwoods, and Prairie Creek Redwoods State Parks." I did go to Prairie Creek on this trip, but also south to Avenue of the Giants, which is not covered. Hence. the 3 stars. I did like that the map in the front, shows the numbered hikes on a single page, so you can see how you might group them together. It's a good book for what it covers.

The entire redwood forest range is neatly described per section in this 200 page reference booklet; national and state parks are described.Easy to understand, the guide is perfect for the novice, and includes park contact, additional reading suggestions, and descriptions of each hike.

I have visited many of these parks over the years, but my recent purchase of this guide opens up many new ideas for hiking and more for my next trip. Highly recommended.
