Flood Damage to the Henry Cowell River Trail

Henry Cowell Redwood State Park experienced temporary park closures due in part to flooding of the San Lorenzo River which flows through the park. A popular trail for park visitors, aptly named the river trail, has been impacted significantly by 3 separate flooding events during storms in early January of 2023. Our crews are working tirelessly to address the impacts of recent storm events in parks all across the Santa Cruz District of California State Parks and we are grateful for the outpouring of support so many of our parks have experienced. If you're interested in joining the recovery effort at Henry Cowell or Big Basin Redwood State Parks, consider visiting www.mountainparks.org to learn about Mountain Parks Foundation, one of our top supporters at these two iconic redwood parks.
Videos like these are made possible in part by our operating partner Friends of Santa Cruz State Parks who work creatively alongside California State Parks to ensure our cherished local parks and beaches are thriving and available to all.
