Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park Visitor Center

Highlight • Rest Area

Redwood Coast Transit offers public transportation to the visitor's center: redwoodcoasttransit.org/routes-schedules/route-20 though I haven't tried it myself. There is a meadow out front which sometimes has wild elk.

Big Tree

Highlight • Natural Monument

While not the biggest redwood in the world, or even in the park, Big Tree is very accessible, with its own parking lot, and has interpretive signs to teach you about the facts and legends of the redwoods.
