Muir Beach is now open! We invite you to come explore the restored landscape and see the brand-new facilities for yourself. This opening marks the end of a multi-year project aimed at restoring the ecosystem processes of Redwood Creek. The parking lot was realigned to allow the creek channel to be connected to its natural floodplain. These restoration efforts have created habitat for threatened and endangered species including coho salmon, steelhead trout, and California red-legged frogs.
This fabric is used to protect the soil in this vulnerable floodplain. Additionally, the pedestrian bridge was extended feet to span the floodplain and reach the new parking lot, while new picnic areas, restrooms, educational models, and trail maps further enhance the visitor experience. Ongoing plans for this area include bike rack installation, winter and spring plantings, new trees in the parking lot median, and continued monitoring of the restoration.
Please bring your own and help us in our efforts to conserve water! The park now offers two accessible wheelchairs on site for the public to checkout.
We ask that you contact the park at least five days in advance to ensure availability. Though construction is complete, restoration continues as planting season is in full swing!
