Tours and Trips in Santa Cruz

Board a historic steam train for a 1-hour ride through the Santa Cruz mountains from Felton's Roaring Camp, and go deep into redwood groves and California's past. Chug up the narrow gage tracks under trees that soar over 270 feet (82 meters) above the forest floor. Learn the history of the forest, the railroad and the logging camp it served. Stroll through the towering trees at Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park, visit an old fashioned general store and sheriff's office and take in serenity of California's ancient forests.

Pack in views of the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, the California redwoods, and the Monterey Bay during this beach train from Santa Cruz's Roaring Camp Railroads. Along with a scenic train ride through the Santa Cruz Mountains, you'll get a 1-hour stop in the middle of your route to relax or explore the area at your own pace. This fun experience is perfect for families, and children under two ride free as an added bonus.
