Wow! Words can't describe these trees.... We only had 1 day but were able to see all the major attractions, since it was a weekday and parking lots weren't full. Drove into the Sequoia entrance by 9:… Full review by dcg86

The most gorgeous park. I have never seen trees so tall and large. It was fantastic driving through the park. Loved it!!! This is a must visit. Full review by Jolacabana

My husband and I visited August 2023, we stayed at John Muir Lodge and visited both parks. You can’t describe the beauty and history. We were amazed! Full review by loriem457
My wife Catherine will be visiting Kings Canyon and Sequoia National park in late July. We are both seniors, what do you recommend for both of these parks Thanks Howard Moore

My husband and I (late 70s, numerous hip and knee surgeries) were there in May. A lot of the parks, mostly in Kings Canyon, were still closed because of the flooding and landslides . Check the park web site for up-to-date information. We stayed at Buckeye Tree lodge in Three Rivers, just a few miles outside the Foothills Visitor Center. Highly recommend both the lodge and the town. Both parks have lots of trails, ranging from handicap-accessible paved or smooth dirt -- our speed! -- up to mountain-goat level. Too many to name here. Hume Lake is lovely, easy to get to, walk as much of the loop trail as you like, or just relax in one of the lakeside Adirondack-style loungers and watch the loons. Not to miss is the General Sherman Tree and the Giants Forest, both just off the General's Highway. You can wander among the trees on smooth trails that give you a real idea of the size of these biggies. Down south you can drive to Hospital Rock, good picnic spot and check out the pictographs on the rock, Also plenty of spots just pull off the road and enjoy the view. Hope you enjoy your trip.

Hi we planning to visit on 4th - 6th for 2 nights. We will be getting the train from San Diego to LA union Station. I was wondering what is the best way to get to the Park from LA Union Train station? We thought about hiring a car but as there is 11 of us and with luggage we would have to hire 2 vans. ( As we are from the UK and travelling to San Diego 4 nights then 2 nights in Sequoia and then returning to LA for 3 final nights. As it's early May is the park shuttle bus running and is there any other transport for us to get there other than car? Our plan is to book the Wuksachi Lodge. Thanks

I don't know of any way to reach the park except by car/van. Sequoia and Kings Canyon are connected by the Nat Park Hwy so that is easy. Your Lodge is a great choice. Only 1 lodge/ park to stay in . Was there Fall 2022. Both are great to visit. Spend at least 3-4 days to really explore
When you say get there early, what time do you mean?

Park itself is 24/7 so you could see the trees themselves whenever it’s light. Visitor Center hours vary but “early” means maybe 30 minutes before opening time. Weekends tend to be far busier than weekdays Unless you’re camping in the park, someone will be there ahead of you.
