Panoramic Point
Panoramic Point is a 7,520-foot overlook located northeast of Grant Grove. Accessible via a short drive (road open in summer only), Kings Canyon Panoramic Point boasts benches where visitors can relax and gaze upon the area's stunning mountain peaks and valleys. From there, you will find a 2.5-mile-long trail that follows a mountain ridge to the Park Ridge Fire Lookout, which is an active lookout tower visitors can climb to the top of for even more impressive views – and a stunning glimpse of the whale-shaped Hume Lake.
Please note: The trail to Panoramic Point at Kings Canyon National Park is fairly steep. It may be suitable for visitors pushing strollers, but it is not wheelchair accessible.
Trailers and RVs are not permitted on the road leading to the trailhead parking lot.
