About this business
Located in Northern California’s Mendocino County there is a skunk running through the redwood forest, but this isn’t any skunk, it’s the world famous Skunk Train. The California redwoods, pristine coastline, and award winning vineyards are all a part of the landscape of what makes Mendocino County such an amazing place and home to this 131-year-old train.

RecommendedYes it was relaxing I would recommend it
It is a relaxing ride, and fun for all ages. Even dogs are allowed, if you travel with yours. A veteran discount is offered. At the final destination in the redwoods is a very nice and large (covered) deck with comfortable seating. It is also a nice hiking spot. The ride is relatively short, we left at 11:30 and returned at 12:45. on some days two trains runs, so it is possible to go out on the first, and return on the second.
Best always-great staff-worth every penny-so enjoyable-beautiful. My friends and I are from Sonoma County and ride all the time. Thanks Skunks
The rail bikes are cool, but it is RIDICULOUSLY overpriced for what we got…2.5 miles in, sit/hike for a bit and then back on the bikes. A little disheartening to see the train was a third of the price for basically the same thing. We only paid it cause we justified the cost because it was a new experience, but ultimately not worth it. Take the train, it’s cheaper and you can drink. You can’t on the bikes.
Fallows the schedule and allow time due to traffic on hwy one and 101
We had a wonderful time! The views are incredible, guides were wonderful and it’s such a unique experience! I would recommend it to anyone!
rail bikes are an adventure and we were able to take our fur baby!
Had a fun time with out 8 month old, he loved the lights and Santa, will be coming back next year when he can understand more!
My mom came to visit from the Midwest and we didn't know what to expect with the Skunk Train, but it was off the rails! Totally fun experience combining the outstanding outdoors and the excitement of exercise! All of the staff was wonderful and I would do this trip again 100%.
