What and where is Muir Woods National Monument?
Muir Woods National Monument is in Marin County, California, just a few miles north of San Francisco. The 558-acre monument preserves one of the last remaining ancient redwood forests in the Bay Area. Some of the redwoods are nearly 1,000 years old and reach heights of more than 250 feet.
Named for conservationist John Muir, it was the 10th national monument to be designated under the Antiquities Act of 1906, the first to be in proximity to a major city, and the first to consist of formerly privately-owned lands.
Today, Muir Woods National Monument is home to more than 380 different plants and animals, including 27 species of mammals, 50 species of birds, 12 species of reptiles, and 5 species of amphibians.
Redwood Creek, the principal stream in the monument, runs clean and clear beneath the towering trees. Its waters are home to Coho salmon and steelhead trout—keystone species in many Pacific ecosystems.
Muir Woods National Monument is managed by the National Park Service as a distinct park unit within Golden Gate National Recreation Area.
How many guests can seated in the Jeep?
Our Jeeps seat 6 people total plus the driver/guide. Jeeps are small vehicles - for everyone’s comfort, we suggest 4 adult riders per Jeep plus 2 children/teens in the smaller 3rd-row seating. Please -we don't recommend that children or Infants under age 3 on any tour. We are not set up for rear-facing child seats. Please remember to bring or request the required car seat(s) for any young children. No children seated in laps. The 3rd row is great for older children (age 5 and up) and teens. There is more wind in the last row of seats so it is not a great seating spot for young children.
