There are many trails at Prairie Creek State Park and the James Irvine Trail is our favorite. You feel as though you've stepped to a magical fairy forest. Giant redwoods, trilliums, ferns, and shamrocks border the trail, giving it the appearance of a manicured woodland garden. Keep in mind that this trail will connect you to famous Fern Canyon, but be warned, it is a very long walk back to your car.
