Redwood National and State Parks

Welcome to the Redwood National and State Parks Travel Planner. Here you'll find everything you need to plan your Redwood vacation, including directions, maps, photos, lodging, camping, things to do, weather, and more.

Redwood National Park together with three California state parks -- Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park, Del Norte Coast Redwoods State Park, and Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park -- represent a cooperative management effort of the National Park Service and California Department of Parks and Recreation. Comprising 45 percent of all the old-growth redwood forest remaining in California, together these four parks are a World Heritage Site and International Biosphere Reserve. The ancient coast redwood ecosystem preserved in the parks contains some of the most majestic forests scenery anywhere in the world. The 112,613-acre park complex draws nearly 400,000 visitors per year. I hope you'll enjoy a visit here in the near future.
