Experience this expansive area – which is really a network of national & state parks – by going beyond the obligatory “tree-hug” photo with these top list of things to do:

This is a 10-mile road that cuts through the heart of the forest. During this drive, you may be lucky enough to see some elk and wild animals roaming.
Hike to Fern Canyon on James Irvine Trail
On this 9-mile roundtrip hike, experience the woods through a prehistoric tense. This part of the forest has been filmed on a variety of movie and TV shows ex. Jurassic Park 2!
