A journey through the Avenue of the Giants offers an unparalleled exploration of these majestic natural wonders nestled in Humboldt County.
This journey takes you on a breathtaking tour through 51,222 acres of ancient redwood groves. The Avenue of the Giants, a picturesque 31-mile stretch of the former Highway 101, is often hailed as the world’s finest forest drive. Lined with colossal trees, this scenic route offers a slower, more immersive alternative to Highway 101 as it winds through southern Humboldt County.
The Avenue is not just about the drive; it’s an experience. Along the way, you’ll encounter secluded forest hamlets, campgrounds, and picnic areas. The route also provides access points to the Eel River, a federally-designated Wild & Scenic waterway perfect for swimming, fishing, and paddling. Numerous trailheads dot the Avenue, each leading into the enchanting redwood forest.
