Redwood National Park Sights

Prairie Creek Visitor Center

Prairie Creek Visitor Center Review

Housed in a redwood lodge, this center has wildlife displays and a massive stone fireplace that was built in 1933. Several trailheads begin here. Stretch your legs with an easy stroll along Revelation Trail, a short loop behind the lodge. Pick up information about summer programs in Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park. There's a nature museum, gift shop, picnic area, and exhibits on flora and fauna. A bonus sighting: Roosevelt elk often roam in the vast field adjacent to the center.
