Sequoia National Park

A gargantuan grove of trees that shoot from the slopes of the Sierra Nevada mountains depict nature's unfathomable beauty. Named after the towering resident trees that dwarf every other being in its unencumbered swathe of wilderness, Sequoia National Park is home to a warren of wonders. Cliffs of the Sierra Nevada compete with the beauty of the General Sherman tree, the largest tree on Earth. While the front country of the park is largely cloaked by blue oak woodlands and mild river valleys, where the elusive mountain lion basks in the morning sun, the back country is characterized by an astonishing expanse of trails like the High Sierra, only accessible by horseback. A host of soul-stirring alpine journeys await hikers who strive to traverse the tapestry of trails.

General Grant Tree

Named after Ulysses S. Grant, Union Army general and the 18th President of the United States, the General Grant Tree is the largest giant sequoia in the Kings Canyon National Park, and also the second-largest tree in the world, towering at a height of 1267.4 feet (81.5 meters). This iconic wonder is also notable for its age, having stood tall and strong across centuries, for over 1600 years. The tree has been fondly nicknamed as the "Nation's Christmas Tree" by President Calvin Coolidge. One simply cannot miss this prominent sight at the park.

Alta Peak

Located at an elevation of 11,208 feet (3,416 meters), Alta Peak earns its name from the Spanish word for ‘High’ (Alta). A prominent hiking spot known for attracting thrill-seekers from all over the world, it provides ample opportunities for activities such as hiking and photography. From the top, the mountain provides panoramic views of the park’s enchanting landscape. Among the site’s notable features is the rocky outcrop referred to as Tharp's Rock, which can be found approximately 0.5 miles (0.8 kilometres) southwest of the hill.

Sawtooth Peak

A jagged hill at a height of 12,343 feet (3,762 meters), Sawtooth Peak is a challenging hike that begins from Mineral King. Popular with adventurous hikers, the top of the mountain provides panoramic views of the Great Western Divide, Mineral Peak, Monarch Lakes, Tulare Peak and part of the Florence Peak.

Alta Peak Trail

A part of the Sequoia National Park, Alta Peak Trail is a 14 miles (24 kilometers) hike that passes through a lush green forest with a wide range of wildflowers. Upon reaching the top of the peak, visitors are provided a panoramic view of the park and the Pear Lake.
