Hiking Trails

In addition to the graveled Garden paths found throughout the Garden, the Humboldt Botanical Garden boasts more than 3 miles of hiking trails that wind through the uncultivated areas of the 44.5-acre garden.

Hiking Humboldt Botanical Garden’s nature trails is a fun adventure for dogs, children and hikers of differing abilities. The Garden staff and volunteers have made an effort to mark each trail as to its difficulty. Steeper trails offer stunning views of Humboldt Bay and the Loleta/Table Bluff area. Gentle, and flat trails snake through riparian areas where butterflies, songbirds and native plants thrive.

Trails are wide, mulched and well-maintained throughout the year. All trails loop to the main gravel road that bisects the Garden from the entry gate to the All Happy Now earth sculpture at the top of the Garden. You can’t get lost.
