Big Hendy Grove

The Best of Hendy Woods

Grove on Discovery Trail in Hendy Woods State Park, Coast Ranges near Philo, CA

By far the best redwoods in Hendy Woods are in Big Hendy, an 80-acre redwood grove. Located on an alluvial flat created by a bend in the Navarro River, the grove is sheltered on one side by hills but is open to the wide Anderson Valley on the other. A network of three trails, the Discovery, Upper Grove, and Back Loops, winds through the old growth forest and without a map can get a little confusing. The Discovery Loop, which is nearest the parking lot, is the least impressive of the three trails, while the Upper Loop, in the center of the grove, is the most impressive. Overall the grove has a surprising amount of really impressive trail.
