Henry Cowell Fall Creek Unit - Bennet Creek Trail

From the park website...

The forks of Fall Creek, a forest of second-generation redwoods and Douglas ?r are some of the attractions of a walk through this isolated area of Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park. Located on the slopes of Ben Lomond Mountain in a wild canyon northwest of Felton, this part of the park also boasts a lush creekside habitat of ferns, big-leaf maple and alder.
The entrance to this park can easily be missed. Watch out for the park sign right at the entrance...


This sign is not visible from the parking lot. The trail starts in left-hand corner of the parking lot.






Coming from the loop going back to trailhead...
