Which Trail Would You Choose?

If you could spend a day on a trail in the Santa Cruz Mountains, where would you go? Wander among towering old growth redwoods, follow a peaceful creek beneath the forest canopy, or climb for a sweeping view?

Together, the Sempervirens Fund community has helped protect redwood forests and wildlife habitat across the Santa Cruz Mountains, home to some of California’s most beautiful state parks.

Explore six trails, vote for the one you’d most like to hike, then see how your choice compares with other’s favorites.

The forests, creeks, and wildlife you’ve just explored are part of what makes the Santa Cruz Mountains so special. For generations, the Sempervirens Fund community has helped protect this region, from helping establish state parks like Big Basin, Butano, and Portola to advocating for lasting protection at Cotoni-Coast Dairies. Your gift today can help protect more redwood forests and care for conserved lands for future generations.
