Claim Jug Handle State Park - Pygmy Forest- Trail Destination to correct what we show. Once you have claimed it, what you tell us takes priority over anything we find elsewhere, and it stays that way.
Jug Handle State Natural Reserve has the Ecological Staircase Trail, a 2.5-mile route across five marine terraces showing coastal ecological succession. It reaches Hans Jenny Pygmy Forest, a stunted woodland on acidic, nutrient-poor soils with tiny cypress, pine, rhododendron, manzanita, and huckleberry. The forest is a California and National Natural Landmark.
