Description

Named after naturalist John Muir, Muir Woods National Monument is a United States National Monument managed by the National Park Service located on Mount Tamalpais near the Pacific coast, in southwestern Marin County. The monument is part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, and is 12 miles north of San Francisco. Muir Woods is a park which caters to mostly pedestrians, as vehicle parking is only allowed at the entrance. There are hiking trails that vary in the level of difficulty and distance, but picnicking, camping and pets are not permitted in this day use park. It is important to note that reservations are required for all vehicles and shuttle riders. The National Park Service recommends that visitors use the Marin Transit shuttle when it is operating to avoid difficulties in finding parking. There are restrooms located immediately at the entrance plaza, as well as a café.
