Just a few miles from the Pacific Ocean, right outside the quaint village of Aptos, lies a serene oasis: the Forest of Nisene Marks State Park.
10,000 acres of second-growth redwoods and oak groves waiting to be discovered.
Leashed dogs are allowed only on fire roads throughout the park and on single-track trails south of the steel bridge.
