MILL BEND

 

The hike begins at 10:00 a.m. at the gate and entrance to Redwood Coast Land Conservancy's Mill Bend Preserve. From Highway 1, on the south end of Gualala, turn onto Old State Hwy (AKA as Old Stage Rd.). Drive approximately 400 feet and take the first right onto a gravel roadway, drive up the hill a short distance and park by the gate. We’ll walk to the Mill Bend house (where folks can leave their lunches) then take the Toyon Trail followed by the River Rail Trail and Sponge Forest Trail. We’ll walk back to the house and eat lunch at the picnic tables. Folks will also have an opportunity to roam around the restored, historic Gualala Cemetery.
