Nestled deep in Oregon’s coastal range, the Valley of the Giants is a true hidden gem. This little-known old growth forest is full of lush, majestic scenery, and it’s home to some of the oldest (and largest) trees in the state. A short, lovely trail will lead you through this incredible place on a beautiful journey you won’t soon forget.
As you stroll through this spectacular rainforest, you’ll be enchanted by the ancient, mossy trees and the serene, peaceful atmosphere.
