Cypress Trail and Dipsea Stairs Loop

03/04/23

First you go up the 3 Dipsea stairs from Old Mill Park. After a brief walk on Edgewood and Cypress Sts you get to the actual trail head. Then you are in the redwoods! You keep going downhill until you get to Cascade Ave, walk back to Old Mill Park. Very easy and anyone can do it, although it is not accessible. Very beautiful, can be your first introduction to this California unique landscape. Bonus: you will be passing Cascade Falls on your left, take the extra few steps to enjoy!

The Dipsea Race is the 2nd oldest foot race in the US. The race is named after the Dipsea Inn at the end of the trail at Stinson Beach. The good news is that you can enjoy this scenic trail and its sweeping ocean views at your leisure. The bad news is that the race is only one-way. If you choose, your leg can be out-and-back for a total of 15 miles. Ok, so maybe you don't have to do the full 15...

It’s home to some true giants, with its tallest trees reaching over 250 ft in height. Muir Woods contains 6 miles of trails (see trail map...

Dawn Falls Trail Loop

Dawn Falls Trail

Take the Dawn Falls trail down into the Baltimore Canyon for an in-depth exploration of northern California nature. Rather than the usual dry, hardy vegetation that speckles the hills of many nearby trails, this trail is bursting with lush ferns and mossy trees as it meanders along next to Larkspur Creek. Although it's a relatively easy and short hike, it very scenic. And for only being a short...
