Amphitheater at Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve
@jeffreydgerson
Come enjoy this secluded redwood grove for a serene escape from the crowds. Here, you can wander through the towering coast redwoods, the tallest trees in the world. Look out for The Parson Jones Tree which stands taller than 310 feet and The Colonel Armstrong Tree, which is over 1,400 years old, making it one of the oldest trees in the grove.

Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve is located about an hour and a half north of San Francisco, so prepare for a bit of a drive.
From San Francisco, take the 101 north into Sonoma. Get off the freeway at the exit for River Road, heading towards Guerneville. Continue on River until you reach Armstrong Woods Road; turn right onto Armstrong Woods and follow the road until you reach the parking lot and visitors center.
From the entrance to the park, look for signs for the amphitheater and follow the trails accordingly.
