Things to know
About the Activity
See Marin's world-famous redwoods without the crowds on your moderately strenuous, 3 to 4-hour, guided small-group tour led by an expert local guide. Access the iconic redwood groves of charming Mill Valley on foot and navigate the quiet trails following the fern-lined canyons at the base of Mt. Tamalpais. Experience cathedral-like ancient trees in a primeval creek-side setting and explore the redwood groves for about two and a half hours. The walk begins with a shuttle from a meeting place near the ferry landing in downtown Sausalito (ferry ticket not included) and then a stroll through Mill Valley's historic downtown before heading out into the redwood forests and park-like neighborhoods.3 hours
