Review:

Armstrong Redwood State Reserve was open to the public in 1936 and named after the Armstrong family who the land was in possession of since the 1870s. The reserve is 805 acres and features several notable trees such as the Colonel Armstrong Trees, which is 1,400 years old and the Parson Jones Tree, which stands taller than the length of a football field at 310 feet. Most visitors to the reserve hike the interpretive trails, including The Discovery Trail, which features a Tree Hugging Platform and is wheelchair accessible. The Armstrong Nature Trail is also paved and has interpretive exhibits in Braille. The individual trails at this reserve are short, but when they are combined, visitors can hike for around five and a half miles. One of the trails connects to the Austin Creek State Recreation Center, which is adjacent to the Reserve and has twenty miles of trails.
