People Also Ask
Are Muir Woods tours worth it?
Yes. Muir Woods National Monument is a natural wonder that preserves one of the Bay Area’s last remaining ancient redwood forests. A walk through these soaring trees, which are many hundreds of years old, inspires reverence and is well worth making the short journey from San Francisco.
...MoreHow long are Muir Woods tours?
Guided tours of Muir Woods National Monument typically take 1-2 hours to walk among the mighty redwood trees. If you book a tour that departs from San Francisco, you can expect the entire experience to take around 3.5 hours, including round-trip travel time.
...MoreWhat is the best way to visit Muir Woods?
Visiting Muir Woods with a guided tour has several advantages over driving there yourself. Primarily, you will enjoy a richer experience in the company of a guide who can offer expert insight into the forest, and you won’t have to worry about parking (reservations for which must be made in advance).
...MoreWhat is the best time to visit Muir Woods?
The best time to visit Muir Woods is from May to October, when the weather is mild and warm. To avoid summer crowds, visit in the early mornings or late afternoons. Early morning, when the trees are shrouded in thick fog, is a particularly magical time to visit.
...MoreHow much time do you need to spend at Muir Woods?
One to two hours is enough to visit the main areas of Muir Woods. However, if you plan to hike one of the longer trails that lead around the national monument, you should give yourself between three and five hours.
...MoreCan you drive through Muir Woods without a reservation?
No. You cannot drive through Muir Woods since no road leads through the national monument. The old-growth redwoods are not visible from any road. Moreover, all drivers (and shuttle riders) must book entry tickets in advance. Book a guided tour to avoid the reservation system; if you feel adventurous, hike in.
