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.

The whole experience was great. The weather was perfect, so we wished the trip was longer. Any chance we can book a trip from Willits all the way to Fort Bragg?

My husband and I had a wonderful time on this train ride. We stood on the outside car for much of the ride, and the smell of the forest, the creaking of the wheels on the tracks and the Train Singer made this a super fun event. Thank you!

We thoroughly enjoyed our morning ride on the Skunk Train. Nice scenery, good history, good snack and drink bar. BUT…the best part of the trip was meeting Greg, the train singer and storyteller! What a treasure! Great voice, solid on the GUI-tar and what a smile! He made our anniversary trip special and memorable. Highly recommend the trip.
