Item Description
Since 1885 the historic Skunk Train has made its way through Mendocino county's old-growth redwood groves, over scenic trestle bridges, through spectacular tunnels, and into the heart of the Noyo River canyon. Today's riders enjoy the same pristine views that have remained largely unchanged for well over a century.
The Wolf Tree Turn is a 2 hour round trip will take you from the Willits valley floor to the highest point on the rail line. During this trip you will pass through Tunnel #2 and descend into the redwood-thick Noyo River Canyon – an amazing ecological wonderland, and an excellent opportunity to discover the mighty giants that made Mendocino County famous.
The train will stop briefly at Crowley while you enjoy the splendor of one of the oldest and most iconic trees along our route. The Wolf Tree was so named for the large growth off of one side – woodsman called these wolf trees because they choke out smaller trees and underbrush. Passengers are able to get off the train during the stop at Crowley, to better enjoy the views.
You'll make the trip to Crowley on board historic Diesel-Electric engines.
