Just off The Avenue of Giants is Founder’s Grove with a nice interpreted nature trail and a docent. This place is dedicated to the men who fought to save the remaining ancient Redwoods beginning in the early part of the twentieth century.

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week.
