Montgomery Woods State Reserve, in the heart of the Coast Range, has 700 acres of redwoods, where visitors can walk along one of the park's many trails. It is an excellent example of both a magnificent coastal redwood grove and a beautiful fern forest. The Reserve was originally acquired in the 1940's through the efforts of the Save-the-Redwoods League, a group that has generously labored to preserve natural redwood groves since the early 1910's and donated to State Parks. From an original gift of 9 acres, donated by the a landowner Robert Orr in l945, the grove has grown to its present size.<br><br><b>Directions:</b> Montgomery Woods is an 1142 acre State Reserve located on both sides of the Comptche-Ukiah road about fifteen miles west of Ukiah and thirty miles east of the town of Mendocino. |
