Embark on an eight-day adventure starting with three days exploring the majestic Redwoods at Redwoods National Park and nearby state parks - hiking Fern Canyon trail, biking the original Redwood Highway (now closed to car traffic), and ziplining among the tallest trees on earth. Take in soaring ocean views amidst the magical ancient trees. Then spend a thrilling three days whitewater rafting the Lower Klamath River, where you'll navigate exhilarating rapids, set up camp under the stars, and wake up to the sounds of nature. Watch for eagles and other wildlife while discovering hidden waterfalls. Enjoy scenic drives and tide pool explorations along the rugged Northern California coastline before returning to Austin.
