This level spur trail is easily accessible with a parking area off Hamilton Road. It heads south along a flat grade parallel to the West Branch Mill Creek. This trail features a varying composition of riparian (riverside) plant species providing an interesting contrast to the conifer-dominated areas further up the hillside. The diversity of the Redwoods ecosystem can really be admired on this trail, so take your time to enjoy the scenic trip.
This is the Picnic Road Trailhead and parking area.
