Start your journey through Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks at the Sequoia National Park visitor center, then head north to the Marble Falls trail, dotted with overlooks and wildflowers. Next, marvel at the Four Guardsmen, giant sequoias that herald the wonders ahead, including the Giant Forest Museum with its popular trail.
Explore Moro Rock, a 300-foot granite dome offering spectacular views, and drive through the Tunnel Log, a fallen sequoia large enough for cars. The journey continues to the awe-inspiring General Sherman Tree, the largest living tree by volume, surrounded by the educational Congress Trail.
Enjoy a picnic at Halstead Meadow before reaching the Kings Canyon Overlook for stunning canyon vistas. Visit the General Grant Tree, the world’s second-largest tree and a national shrine. Conclude at Panoramic Point with its breathtaking views of Kings Canyon. Optional extensions into the canyon offer additional vistas, the marble Boyden Cavern, and the Roaring River Falls, with plenty of hiking opportunities.
