Located in the southern Sierra Nevada mountain range, Kings Canyon National Park feaures high mountain meadows, swift flowing rivers, groves of giant Sequoia trees, and many miles of hiking trails to explore it all.
Combined, the Pacific Crest Trail and John Muir Trail form the backbone of the trail system, which ranges from relatively easy day hikes to multi-day backpacking treks over difficult terrain.
