Redwoods grow taller than any other tree species in the world. These trees thrive in the cool foggy climate near the coast. At Muir Woods the average age of the redwoods ranges from 400 to 800 years old. There is nothing like a peaceful walk through Muir Woods.
When I moved to bay area from Florida, Muir Woods became my favorite spot to breathe in nature. It still amazes me that the fifth largest city, San Francisco, is only a few minutes away from the nation's 10th national monument. Muir Woods is the last remaining strand of redwoods in the heart of Marin County.
