State Route 271 is a state highway in northern California, USA. It is a former routing of U.S. Route 101, now reduced to being a frontage road for that route in discontiguous segments. It also connects with Route 1 just before that route's terminus with US 101 in Leggett. Its appeal now is that while US Highway 101 stays mostly in second growth redwoods, State Route 271 travels through several old growth redwood groves. It is now most commonly used as a scenic alternate.
