Boy Scout Tree Trailhead reviews
6It took longer than anticipated but we certainly enjoyed our time on this trail. Look for the tree with the arrow carved into it in order to reach the Boy Scout tree. (Pic attached)
Really enjoy the hike. Come early as there aren’t many parking spaces at the trailhead. The fall in the end of trail is a bit letdown but the hike itself is pretty descent. The path is well maintained also.
Great hike! Truly amazing walking through these massive trees. Not too challenging with elevation gain but a solid distance to the end. I think it was more than the 2.8 miles listed. I found this hike way more rewarding and more secluded than the Titans trail.
Great trail. I really recommend this trail for a first time visit to old growth red woods. The water fall at the end is not much, but it’s so close. If you see the Boy Scout tree you might as well as see the falls. Just don’t expect spectacular falls.
Great out and back trail that has a wonderful grove that you may walk through. There is a big giant tree 0.4 miles before you get to the falls. It is a sharp right turn and you may miss it if you aren’t looking!
About three miles back there's a trail that shoots off to the right. That'll take you to the boy scout tree. It's pretty amazing. Trail isn't clearly marked but you can't miss it.
