Located in Redwood National Park, the Lady Bird Johnson Grove trail is an easy 1.5 mi (2.5 km) loop walk through a majestic stand of ancient giants. The wide path makes this the perfect hike for families or groups to enjoy the wonders of this redwood forest together. Part way along, you'll see the marker and place where the grove was dedicated to Lady Bird Johnson, former first lady and champion of conservation. In the summers, catch one of the ranger-led walks that begin in the parking lot. To get to the grove from Hwy 101, take the exit for Bald Hills Road just north of Orick. Three miles up the narrow and windy road, you'll see the parking area for Lady Bird Johnson Grove on the right. Note: Parking in the lot is limited, and cars are not allowed to park on Bald Hills Road. RVs/trailers not advised on Bald Hills Road.
