El Corte de Madera Creek Preserve

Approximate Total Miles

Get your long weekend miles in with Docent Naturalists Anna Lee and Ani Agahian on this running tour of the landmarks in this forested preserve. See the majestic Methuselah Tree, the unique tafoni sandstone formations, and the regal redwoods. The route includes the Tafoni, El Corte de Madera Creek, and North Leaf trails. Olympic speed is not necessary—multiple paces accommodated—but be prepared for about 1,200 feet of elevation change!
