The plan is to build a 300-mile trail along the route of the disused Northwestern Pacific Railroad, stretching from the San Francisco Bay in the south to the Humboldt Bay in the north. It will be designed for non-motorized uses like walking, cycling, and horseback riding.
When completed, the Great Redwood Trail will be one of the longest rail-to-trail conversion projects in the country. The planned route traverses California’s most scenic redwood forests, farmlands, mountains, rivers, and wine country, with a range of surfaces from 12-foot-wide, paved segments to narrow backcountry trails.
This is a long-term project spanning decades, with no specific opening date yet on the table.
