Redwood National and State Parks - Plan Your Visit

Redwood National Park by National Parks Service

Operating Hours Seasons

Redwood is accessible year round. In the summer, redwoods along coastal roads and trails stand amidst life-giving fog. Travel a few miles inland to find sunshine. The winter brings much needed rain and occasional sunshine. The rain varies from torrential downpours to a light mist.

Heavy rains can lead to road closures; check at a visitor center to find out the estimated open date.
