Memorial County Park
Located about five miles southwest of La Honda, Memorial Park has old-growth redwoods, a visitor center, a camp store, a creek swimming area, and campfire programs. Over eight miles of hiking trails, including the Mt. Ellen Nature Trail (1 mile), lead the visitor through a changing panorama of habitats from Pescadero Creek, through the woods and to the summit of Mt Ellen (elevation 600 feet). The self-guided Mt. Ellen Nature Trail offers a short and easy interpretive loop through the park's northern area.
