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.

It was a great and wonderful time. Our teenagers' kids enjoyed the 2 hours trips as well! A Skunk train is a great experience for sure! I will recommend it to family and friends. Employees are helping a lot to make sure all of us have a great time. Thanks!

Nice historic train and station, but the trip is disappointing. Enjoyed the train singer and it was nice to have a snack bar on board.

This train ride that leaves Willits is better than the train ride from Fort Bragg. The ride is longer and we rode through a long tunnel through the dense redwood forest. Great fun standing on the outside viewing car and listening to masterful song playing of the skunk train musician. We also did the rail bike in Fort Bragg. I suggest that experience for the hardy adults.
