The Red Creek Fir is often described as the world's largest Douglas fir, rising more than 70 metres and measuring over four metres across. Its age is estimated at around a thousand years, which makes the tree feel less like a roadside curiosity and more like a living monument.
The access road is rough and conditions change, so check locally before setting out from Port Renfrew. It is best paired with other old-growth stops such as Avatar Grove.
