Redwood Regional Park Loop
Starting at Canyon Meadow, this Redwood Regional Park loop follows the Stream Trail into the cool corridor of Redwood Creek, passing picnic clearings before entering the shaded coast-redwood forest that gives the park its character.
Beyond the creekside section, the route climbs onto the French Trail, threading through ferny redwood and evergreen slopes toward the Redwood Peak area before using Madrone Trail to reach the higher West Ridge Trail.
The final section follows West Ridge Trail and then Bridle Trail back toward Canyon Meadow, shifting from enclosed forest to mixed woodland, chaparral-edged clearings and a quieter descending finish above the creek valley.
