Purisima Creek Trail

🌲"everything aficionados of redwoods and banana slugs could ever want" (7x7)
🅿️Unmarked lot at sharp bend on Higgins Purisima Road
🌿Look for five finger fern and wood fern cascading from banks

Wander through a cathedral of coast redwoods where sunlight filters through 300-foot giants and Purisima Creek burbles year-round beneath your boots. From a gentle family-friendly stroll to a thigh-burning 9.5-mile loop with 2,280 feet of climbing, this trail serves up whatever intensity you're craving.
