Description

Spanning 550 acres across the homelands of the Coast Miwok people, the monument is named for naturalist John Muir and protects a preserved forest of Sequoia sempervirens. Routes unfold across a well-maintained, easy-to-follow trail system—including loops of around two miles—immersed in towering, peaceful forest scenery, supported on-site by a shop and cafe.
