All aboard the Skunk Train! Journey on this historic rail line amongst towering old-growth redwood trees, over wooden trestle bridges, and through majestic stone tunnels for memories that last a lifetime.
Departing from Willits, embark on unforgettable excursions like the Wolf Tree Turn, where you’ll encounter one of the oldest and most iconic trees along the route. Celebrate seasonal favorites such as the Easter Express and Pumpkin Express, each offering a unique experience for locals and visitors alike. Every journey takes you to Crowley, the highest point on the rail line, before passing through Tunnel No. 2, and descending into the breathtaking Noyo River Canyon – a landscape so stunning it will leave you in awe.
If you’re visiting during the holiday season, be sure to catch a ride on Mr. Skunk and the Giant Christmas Tree. Riders are treated to hot beverages served by elves, carolers making their way through the train, and a surprise visit from their beloved mascot, Mr. Skunk!
Trains depart from both Fort Bragg and Willits, so be sure to check the Skunk Train calendar when planning your trip.
