Roaring Camp and Santa Cruz Big Trees and Pacific Railroad
At the northern end of the Henry Cowell Redwood State Park, by the CA 9 road in Fenton, is the start of a 100-year-old narrow gauge railway. Part of its route is through the Redwood Forests and in places it has to negotiate some very steep gradients. Bear Mountain, an old lumberjack village, is worth a short stop.
The trains run throughout the year at varying times.
