Itinerary

During your next Northern California visit, come experience Roaring Camp’s towering redwoods, just 80 miles south of San Francisco. See old growth coastal redwoods from two historic railroad excursions, shop the old-fashioned general store, explore vintage structures and enjoy authentic western cooking from the Chuckwagon Barbecue. Redwood Forest Steam Train (1.15 hours roundtrip) Ride into the Past on 19th Century Steam Trains Travel over trestles, through towering redwood groves and up a winding narrow-gauge grade to the summit of Bear Mountain as conductors narrate the history of Roaring Camp, the railroad and the forest. In the 1880s, narrow-gauge steam locomotives were used to haul giant redwood logs out of the mountains. Roaring Camp's steam engines date from 1890 and are among the oldest and most authentically preserved narrow-gauge steam engines providing regularly scheduled passenger service in America.
