Point Reyes National Seashore Waterfalls - San Rafael California Waterfall Trails

Point Reyes illustrates California’s violent geological history as well as the richness of its fauna. Literally balancing on the edge of the San Andreas Fault, you can stand atop a hill and see the scars of seismic activity underneath with your naked eye. At the same time, the peninsula is home to thirty-seven land species and dozens of marine species, along with almost 20 percent of California’s flowering plant species. This trail guide contains descriptions of the following trails: Alamere Falls, Phantom Falls, and Horsetail Falls.
