Hike Fern Canyon in Redwoods National Park

Walk through a narrow canyon lined with 50-foot walls of emerald ferns beneath towering redwood trees, a setting so magical it was featured in Jurassic Park. The 1-mile loop trail often involves wading through ankle-deep water, creating mirror-like reflections of the lush vegetation. Early morning visits offer the best lighting and fewer crowds.

βYes, this is the place that the docent was talking about; and it is not only kids who are attempting a passage. As I arrive, one woman is removing her boots in order to wade through six inches of water for about twelve feet, thereby solving the problem. For me at least, sliding off that slippery log with no available handhold was a bit scary.β
βWe realized they were trying to avoid walking through the ankle-deep water, so we followed them. After my third login, I realized it was harder walking across these slippery logs than just getting my feet wet (to be honest, I was just scared of slipping off the log and getting my whole body wet) so I took the chance with my waterproof hiking shoes (not boots) and walked through the water.β
