Phleger Estate

Phleger Estate-with its forest of second-growth redwoods, oaks, and firs-marks the southernmost end of the Golden Gate National Parks. Century-old redwood stumps and remnants of steam mills are scattered throughout this tranquil park, evidence of the Bay Area's once-lively 19th century logging industry.

The estate's 1,232 acres alternate between gulches threaded with seasonal creeks and steep hillsides that rise up to dramatic ridgetops. Bobcats, coyotes, golden eagles, black-tailed deer, steelhead trout, and beavers once thrived in this redwood forest ecosystem
