Skunk Train: Wolf Tree Turn from Willits

Overview

This 2 hour round trip will take you from the Willits valley floor to the highest point on our rail line. During this trip you will pass through Tunnel #2 and descend into the redwood-thick Noyo River Canyon – an amazing ecological wonderland, and an excellent opportunity to discover the mighty giants that made Mendocino County famous.

The train will stop briefly at Crowley while you enjoy the splendor of one of the oldest and most iconic trees along our route. The Wolf Tree was so named for the large growth off of one side – woodsman called these wolf trees because they choke out smaller trees and underbrush. Passengers are able to get off the train during our stop at Crowley, to better enjoy the views.

You'll make the trip to Crowley on board one of our historic Diesel-Electric engines.

A nice way to see the scenery of the area with great narration. We learned many facts on our excursion. They picked us up at Mendocino Redwoods RV Park!

A relaxing and beautiful ride through Willits, it's interesting industrial backyard that shows how important the timber industry was and still is, and the nearby Noyo Valley, with its magnificent stands of trees. While we didn't view as many redwoods as we thought we would, witnessing the train turn around at the top of the ride was fascinating. Malachi, the conductor, was 5-Star! Time well spent.

This was a highlight of our trip! It was a gorgeous route into the redwoods. Then a nice time walking around before we hopped back on to head back. Adults and kids all enjoyed the trip!
