Twelve years after being incinerated, an immensely popular Big Sur hike is finally reopening to the public.
The breezy .75-mile jaunt known as the Pfeiffer Falls Trail, which meanders through a dense envelopment of redwoods before winding down a gorge and culminating with awe-inspiring views of a 60-foot waterfall, had been closed since 2008, when the Basin Complex Fire obliterated much of the trail and its infrastructure.
Now, after $2 million of renovations and years of work, hikers will once more be able to set foot on the iconic trail.

âThis trail is going to make a lot of peopleâs day,â Marcos Ortega, superintendent of California State Parksâ Big Sur cohort, told The Mercury News. âItâs kid-friendly. You get to see a waterfall. Youâre in the redwoods. It gives you the full Big Sur experience.â
