Overview

Hype:

One of the most appealing and exciting features of the entire Trees of Mystery experience is the nearly 1/3 mile journey through the forest tree tops via the unique SkyTrail gondola ride. Surely nowhere else are you going to have the chance to get an up-close downward perspective from the tops of redwood trees that measure 100s of feet in height. A total of 8 Gondola Cars continuously make the approximately 8-10 minute, 1570 foot trip up the mountain each day - giving riders not only spectacular views of magnificent redwoods, but a fine mountaintop ocean vista at the observation deck at the summit as well.

Story

We took the Kingdom of Trees trail up to the tram. We took the Forest Experience Trail on the way. Then we took the Sky Trail (gondola ride) up to the lookout. Everyone else rode the Sky Trail back down, and I ran down the Wilderness Trail. It took me right around 8 minutes, and the others only beat me down by less than a minute. From the bottom of the Gondola, we walked down the Trail of Tall Tails and admired all the chainsaw statues. Then we stopped at the End of the Trail Museum and gift shop and got a souvenir magnet.
