This place is just beautiful. You can park out front for free, and then walk into the forest. You could spend all day here just walking around. Take a lunch and JACKET. The trees are giants, so the area is well shaded. Most of the year it's a cool, humid experience. More

Stunning Redwood Groves to enjoy after a health stroll through the forest. Large Growth giants provide coolness in summer and bring a jacket for climate adjustments of extremes. More

I never thought I’d say it, but after many days of multiple wine tastings, I was ready for something new! Our group went to Armstrong for a morning of the great outdoors, and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. They have many great, shorter trails for some light hiking to get a great glimpse of these amazing trees. But make sure... More

Dogs are only allowed at the main paved part of the park. You cannot hike with your dog at their hiking trails.... Bummer. More

We visited April 19, 2012. This is just a short drive outside of Guerneville and we visited after being at Korbel Champagne for a tour and lunch. This place is magnificent! There is a small visitors' center at the parking lot. The woman here was very helpful. We then drove over to the ranger station and paid the $8.00 to... More
