Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Samuel P. Taylor State Park adventure.
Romp in an untouched wilderness where ancient trees guide your explorations.
Take a shady stroll protected by nature's tallest trees. Majestic redwoods watch over you as you traverse the Pioneer Tree Trail. This loop trail descends into a small canyon after going through an old-growth forest. Just think of the history these trees lived through over the centuries. The 5.8-mile loop trail to Barnabe Peak has some steep climbs. The magnificent views are totally worth it.
The Cross Marin Trail bike path is both a dog-friendly jaunt and a partly paved area. Follow the path as it curves along Lagunitas Creek for 3 miles. Due to the park location, you could keep walking for a *really* long time. This old railroad right-of-way eventually goes to Golden Gate park.
Sir Francis Drake Boulevard is the busy street in and out of the park. The road offers a scenic tour of a gorge before landing you near your campground entrance. Camp Taylor and Orchard Hills have group sites, cabins and 61 campsites in all. Reservations are recommended for this busy vacation spot.
A Stillwater Cove Regional Park camping trip invites you to a tranquil coastal escape. It's a quiet haven, offering sea views, forested trails, and campsites that encourage you to connect deeply with nature.
