Jun 17, 2017 — Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park is a great place to visit some old growth redwood trees. The Ten Taypoo and Hope Creek Loop is a short hike through some of these very pretty redwoods. The terrain in this area is incredibly lush and green and the moss-covered trees make it a cozy and enjoyable hike. You can see a wide variety because the trail ascends from a gully to a higher-elevation ridge. The trail is easy to follow and well-maintained, complete with a built-in wooden boardwalk. Just across the street is the lovely Ossagon Trail.

The traill leads through a naturally hollowed tree.

After a bit of walking through greenery, the trail gains elevation and leads to a pine tree ridge.

Along the ridge.

The trail ten continues the loop and enters back into old growth redwoods.

The Ten Taypo Trail ends with a wooden boardwalk that completes the loop with Hope Creek.
