This is the review you never think you're going to write about some trees... But here it is: Of all of the places i have visited in my life this is one of the best, most inspiring, jaw dropping spiritual experiences of my entire life. These trees are like nothing you have ever experienced before. I guarantee it. Stay in... More

Loved it. It had amazing views around winding bends and lots of wildlife to view. Walking around the meadow is nice and relaxing and you might even get lucky and glimpse a bear.

We made the drive into Kings Canyon to kill an extra 1/2 day we had after touring Sequoia and seeing Grant Grove. We never expected the drive to end up being one of the highlights of our trip. The Canyon is absolutely magnificent. Plan on giving yourself a few hours to make the trip, you will not regret it.

This Park is very unique. It has something for everyone. It starts out in the redwood Forests and traverses several terrain changes before it ends at the kings River. It is deeper than the Grand Canyon and as impressive and majestic as Yosemite, without out the traffic.

We have visited many of our national parks and these two are at the top! I am sorry that they were within 4-5 hours of our home and we hadn't visited sooner. We live in the redwoods, but the sequoias are awesome! Never have seen anything so huge! We were there in the early Spring so many things weren't open... More

Sequoia and Kings Canyon are simply awesome. Great views, big trees (I mean, really big trees), and old trees (I mean, really old trees). Check out Hume Lake, or climb Moro Rock; you will have a great time.

I am a very frequent visitor to the Sierra Nevada, and I have run the gamut of backpacking, camping, hotel suites, etc throughout the Sierra. I have also traveled throughout Southeast Asia, Europe (including over a dozen trips to the Swiss Alps), and I can say, without a doubt, that this is one of my favorite natural places. As a... More

Very beautiful drive from Fresno where I was staying on business. Pull over at the turnouts along the way to get some amazing pics. Many of the roads were closed due to weather but was able to walk the trail around the Grant Tree and the Sherman Tree in Sequoia National Park. They are huge. Both must sees. Hope to... More

We live near Kings Canyon/Sequoia and go there often. It is just a beautiful as Yosemite Valley, and much less crowded. Camping is a little less expensive, and there are not the touristy things that Yosemite has, but still plenty of hiking trails and falls. It's a good place to let the kids run and enjoy your family.
