The towering redwoods of Muir Woods are waiting for you! On eight days in 2026, all national parks and national monuments that charge an entrance fee will offer free admission to US citizens, including Muir Woods in the San Francisco Bay Area. 

In partnership with the Student Conservation Association, the Parks Conservancy Pathways Program offers a variety of 6-9 month internship opportunities working with diverse teams across the parks.

These are the stories of the people who were the original stewards of the lands that are now the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Find videos and stories highlighting that history and its connections to today.
