Mendocino County: Skunk Train Wolf Tree Turn Train Ride

Mendocino County: Skunk Train Wolf Tree Turn Train Ride

Join this magical train ride through the redwoods on the world-famous Skunk Train. Since 1885 the historic train has made its way through old-growth redwood groves, through spectacular tunnels, and into the heart of the Noyo River canyon.  On this 2 hour round trip, discover an amazing ecological wonderland and an excellent opportunity to discover the mighty giants that made Mendocino County famous. Your train ride will stop briefly at Crowley while you enjoy the splendor of one of the oldest and most iconic trees along the route. The Wolf Tree was so named for the large growth off of one side. The original Skunk Train began as a logging route back in 1885, transporting families and workers to and from logging camps. The train received its now-famous nickname back in 1925 when motorcars were introduced that ran on gasoline and which had a pot-bellied stove burning crude oil to keep the passengers warm.

Everything available offline. The app works great and the location also works perfectly. The audios are of good length. You learn a lot along the way, but you are not overwhelmed by information, so that you can really take something away with you. There could be more audios and/or a category with overlapping audios. Overall it's very good and I would definitely recommend it!

The train ride was so fun and so sweet, like going back in time. It was very warm on the day we traveled and were comfortable In the open car. I would go again and would like to return to take the Fort Bragg trip. I sure wish tunnel #1 would be rebuilt so it would run from Willits to Mendocino!

Fun with the singing conductor, the snacks and smiles, the music at the turn around, the information about the history and surrounding area, and the kind calm demeanor of all. Beautiful area!

It was so beautiful! The train singer was the best part of the ride and the trees the best part of the stop!

Very informative and easy to use. First class support 👍. I can only recommend.
