Rare Smokeyham Posted April 30, 2018 #1 Share Posted April 30, 2018 For those who are thinking of renting a car and visiting the redwoods in Muir Woods (just north of the Golden Gate Bridge), be advised that a new reservation system has been implemented and that reservations are required. Information can be found here, on the National Park Service's Website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philob Posted May 1, 2018 #2 Share Posted May 1, 2018 There is also no cellphone, mobile data, or wifi in the area. If you take a taxi, Uber or Lyft there you will not be able to hail a ride back without prior arrangements. Parking along the side of road outside of the park entrance will get you a pricey ticket too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mara93 Posted May 1, 2018 #3 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Oh wow .... we were there a few years ago & finding parking was incredibly difficult. We parked a LONG ways out along the side of the road. Hopefully, this helps congestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheezedr Posted May 3, 2018 #4 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Weekends will be especially bad in the summer tourist season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Smokeyham Posted March 4, 2019 Author #6 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Just a quick update on this. I spoke with staff from the National Park Service and they said that the reservation system has been working very well and has helped to ease congestion. National Park Service's Website. There is also a shuttle system available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
