Sequoia National Park

East of Visalia, California, in the southern Sierra Nevada, Sequoia National Park is a national park in the United States. On September 25, 1890, the park was created to save 404,064 acres of steep forested land. The Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks are jointly managed by the National Park Service and are south of and next to Kings Canyon National Park. In 1976, Sequoia-Kings Canyon Biosphere Reserve was established by UNESCO.

Sequoia National Park, which is home to some of the largest trees in the world, is a sobering site to visit. You may feel little in compared to the beautiful trees that soar hundreds of feet above you at the park. The park, the country's second national park, located about 80 miles east of Fresno, California, in the southern Sierra Nevada mountain range. It was created in 1890 as a precaution against the logging of the enormous trees. In 1940, the adjacent Kings Canyon National Park was established, and eventually, the two parks were connected.

Of course, the park's trees are its best feature. The General Sherman Tree, which has deservedly acquired the title of largest tree in the world, is maybe the most notable (it stands 275 feet tall and its base measures more than 36 feet in diameter). However, there is much more to see and do in the park than simply enjoy its plant life, including exploring caverns, hiking, and snowshoeing. The park is additionally open every day of the year, and every season has its unique attractions.
