The forests and fern canyon are amazing (fern canyon is near the beach). Redwoods some of which are 100 meters tall, beautiful creeks, song birds. Seeing large elk is likely. There are trails suitable for children - wide and not steep.
The shoe house made from a redwood stump the drive thru tree and dont forget trees of mystery up by crescent city with paul bunyan and babe the blue ok ride sky trails thru the redwoods and visit the native american muesem great for the whole family!
Nature, giant redwoods, fresh air, beautiful scenery, insert imagination here... Great place for kids to explore and aww, especially if they see a giant banana slug. Your family can do anything your imagination allows. Just keep it rated G, since by family I'm assuming there are children.
Hicking, relaxing kids playground and local attractions all over.
In the actual Forest there's just hiking trails but in the surrounding area there's the Chandelier tree (drive thru tree) and the Trees of Mystery that has a gondola ride up through the redwoods and some interactive trails with stories about Paul Bunyan.
Go here if you like taking walks in the forest and looking at big trees....
Stout Grove Trailhead, Mill Creek Trailhead are two great trails to explore. Easy to walk and wonderful scenery.
Only if you like outdoor activities or you and your family would like to get away from city noise.
Trees are the main attraction.
Nature ma'am, nature
