Kings Canyon Park

Discover Kings Canyon National Park

Kings Canyon National Park features terrain similar to Yosemite Valley, and is home to the deepest canyon in the United States at over a mile and a half deep!

With its deep valleys, skyscraper trees, and distinctive rock outcroppings, Kings Canyon National Park is the place that John Muir once called "a rival to Yosemite." By some measures, it is the deepest canyon in America!

Located just a short drive from Sequoia National Park, Kings Canyon Park is composed of two distinct areas – Grant Grove (home to the General Grant tree, also known as "the Nation's Christmas Tree") and Cedar Grove. Here, visitors snap photos and marvel at the sheer size of the sequoia grove. Kings Canyon is also home to Redwood Canyon, the largest remaining grove of sequoia trees in the world.

In addition to Kings Canyon National Park's celebrated sequoias, this glaciated valley also features miles of hiking trails, horseback riding, and camping – a perfect place for outdoor enthusiasts of every age. Visit the links below to explore the various parts of Kings Canyon.
