How to Use the Trail
The Great Redwood Trail is for everyone, ranging from day hikers and horseback riders to bike-packers and backpackers.
Pedestrians and Hikers
can use the trail for short walks or long-distance backpacking trips, including those using mobility devices or camping along the route.
Equestrians
can enjoy the trail during day rides, hiking while supported by livestock, or equestrian multi-day camping trips. In areas with high demand, equestrian users may have separate facilities from other users for safety and comfort.
Cyclists
can ride conventional bikes and e-bikes along the GRT for recreation or transportation needs. Gravel and mountain bikers, bike-packers, and touring cyclists can explore the trail with the possibility to camp along the way.
River Users
can take kayaks, canoes, and rafts connecting from the trail. Both day-use leisure trips with whitewater options and multi-day camp trips are possible.
