Description

Take the Steep Ravine Trail uphill, away from the ocean, through the surprisingly lush redwood canyon along Webb Creek. There are a few waterfalls here, and about halfway through, a particularly steep section of the trail has a ladder to climb. Continue on the Steep Ravine Trail as it climbs out of the canyon into a more open forest. The trail ends at Pantoll Ranger Station.

Short return hike with 6yr old kid. It was beautiful and perfect as a start up to the point when several trails merge. Then the trail becomes narrow 3.5mi
