*** About Muir Woods National Monument: Established in 1908 and located just north of San Francisco, Muir Woods National Monument is a primeval forest that boasts some of the tallest and oldest coastal redwoods in existence. These majestic trees create a nearly closed canopy, regulating the sunlight and moisture that reaches the forest floor, and providing a habitat for a rich diversity of ferns, mosses, and understory plants. The monument, named after conservationist John Muir, offers visitors a transformative experience, walking paths that meander through the towering forest, often shrouded in coastal fog, conveying an otherworldly sense of tranquility and ancient grandeur.
