If you’re visiting San Francisco....LEAVE!!! And cross the golden gate to Muir Woods. Beautiful doesn’t begin to describe this place. And go early cause there’s a lot fewer people and don’t forget to make a reservation before.

Use the park and ride at Pohono if going on the weekends. Very easy to get to. You can even Uber. Unless you get a parking pass and you don’t mind a very hilly drive, it is the way to go. And unlike a tour...More

Muir Woods is a fantastic place to visit! It has very accessible paths for anybody. You MUST buy a parking pass before you go and there is NO cell phone service there so make sure you do it before you get there.

It's hard to put into words what an amazing place this is. Surrounded by centuries-old trees, I felt I was on hallowed ground. It's hard to put into words how meaningful the experience was. We went early, and I was glad we did. There weren't...More

The ranger talk was informative and interesting. And the redwoods are spectacular! Part of the paths are decking to make it easier walking. Parking must be arranged online BEFORE you get there and early reservations are a must. The $8 parking fee was a bargain.

We made reservations online for the shuttle bus ride from the Pohono Park and Ride parking lot in Mill Valley to the National Park. It worked extremely well and was only $3 per person. The shuttle was timely, and full! The ride to the park...More

It was free National Parks entry day, but ANY day you must book a car spot online BEFORE attempting to go to Muir Woods. We booked a month out and saw many cars turned away. The attendants are pleasant and have a big job with...More

Good afternoon! The park is just below 600 feet in elevation so your hubby will be just fine. Also, the popular 1-mile loop is flat, with no incline so you can both enjoy the trees up close and personal. No hiking to them... More
