Sequoia National Forest Details
The Sequoia National Forest is world-famous for its 38 groves of towering giant sequoia trees. But don't be fooled by the name, as there are so many other excellent sights to see here. The forest is a hiker's paradise and offers trails for people of all abilities. There are hundreds of miles of 4wd vehicle trails, and campgrounds throughout the forest, as well as shooting ranges, boat launches, and glacier-carved landscape to ooh, and ahhh at. But, if you visit the forest, your likely first stop will be the Giant Sequoia National Monument, as there is nothing else quite like these natural giants.
