About This Trail
You can see some of the world's tallest trees on this trail. A great hike for young children. There is easy access to the tallest and oldest trees in the loop at Big Basin. Families with young children can enjoy the hike because the trail is flat and well-maintained. The Father of the Forest is a large tree with a long trunk, and Mother of the Forest is the tallest tree in Big Basin.
