Muir Woods

Giganti della cintura di nebbia.

Tre brevi passeggiate tra sequoie già vecchie quando cominciò la corsa all’oro. Una per i giganti, una per il torrente e i suoi salmoni, e una che consiste soprattutto nell’ascoltare.

Portale rustico di tronchi con la scritta Muir Woods National Monument su una passerella in legno ombreggiata, tra alte sequoie e cielo blu.

Meet the Redwoods

Start at the gate and find out why these trees grow where the fog goes.

Tappa 1 · Founders Grove: Standing Among Giants

Try this with me. Close your eyes for a moment and picture a soft gray cloud drifting between the trunks. Now imagine the trees drinking it in, slowly, like sipping from a giant cup. Shhh... can you almost hear them? No slurping, I promise.

Le tappe

1Founders Grove: Standing Among Giants
2The Pinchot Tree: A Tree with a Name

Alla prima tappa, cerca Trunks so wide that the whole family could not reach around them, ferns on the forest floor, and light falling in beams through the canopy.

Il Redwood Creek, basso e limpido, a Mill Valley scorre sui ciottoli accanto a una barra di ghiaia, con una collina boscosa sullo sfondo.

Creekside Secrets

Follow Redwood Creek and look for the small lives that depend on it.

Tappa 1 · The Salmon Pool

Do you hear it? A creek has its own quiet music. Little trickles, soft gurgles, a hush where the water slides over stone. Today we follow that music to meet the small lives that depend on it.

2Fern Creek Trail
3The Tree Fern Grove
4Wildlife Viewing Trail

Alla prima tappa, cerca Calm, shaded spots where the water slows and deepens, and the way light moves on the surface. Look without entering the water or disturbing anything.

The Quiet Cathedral

A game of silence in the stillest grove, then a climb for the view.

Tappa 1 · The Game of Silence

Let's play a game. For one whole minute, nobody speaks. Not a word, not a giggle. Who can hear the most different sounds?

4Back on the Main Trail

Alla prima tappa, cerca Moss, ferns and fallen leaves on the forest floor. Notice how soft the ground looks and how far sound seems to travel.
