• Big Stump Picnic Area - Begin the tour at the Big Stump Picnic Area. From here, an easy two-mile loop trail leads to Big Stump, the remains of the Mark Twain Tree. Before being cut down and displayed at the American Museum of Natural History in New York and the British Museum in London, this tree was an impressive 16 feet in diameter and over 300 feet tall.
• Redwood Mountain Overlook - Stop at Redwood Mountain Overlook to admire Redwood Mountain Grove, the largest sequoia grove in the world, covering nearly 2,500 acres. Below the overlook in Redwood Canyon, you can hike the 6.8-mile (11 km) Sugarbowl Loop or the 7.3-mile (11.8 km) Hart Tree Loop. To reach the trailhead, drive about half a mile east from the overlook and follow the signs for Redwood Canyon, then continue for 2 miles on a dirt road.
• Kings Canyon Overlook - No need for long hikes to enjoy stunning views at Kings Canyon Overlook. Simply pull up to take in the breathtaking panorama of Kings Canyon, the park’s namesake natural wonder. Kings Canyon is nearly 2,000 feet deeper than the Grand Canyon, reaching a depth of 8,200 feet (2,500 meters), while the Grand Canyon’s maximum depth is 6,000 feet.
• Kings Canyon Visitor Center - Visit the Kings Canyon Visitor Center in Grant Grove Village to learn about the park and watch a short film.

Nearby, the Grant Grove Market provides basic necessities and food, and the Grant Grove Restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
• Grant Grove - Discover the General Grant Tree, the world’s second-largest tree, at Grant Grove. This area also features the Fallen Monarch, Gamlin Cabin, and the Centennial Stump. The General Grant Tree stands 268 feet tall and 107 feet around, accessible via an easy, paved loop trail of one-third of a mile.
• Panoramic Point - Enjoy a spectacular view of Kings Canyon without driving into it at Panoramic Point. This high-elevation viewpoint also includes Hume Lake. The view is just steps from the parking lot. For more alpine scenery, explore the trail to the Park Ridge Fire Lookout, a moderately difficult 5-mile (8 km) hike to a fire lookout tower, where a volunteer fire observer may greet you.
• McGee Vista Point - Experience another stunning view at McGee Vista Point, where you can observe the impact of the Rough Fire. During the tour, learn about the unique relationship between wildfires and sequoia trees.
• Junction View - At Junction View, enjoy a panoramic vista of the Western Sierra extending to Mount Whitney, the tallest peak in the contiguous United States. The overlook is named for its view of the junction of the Middle and South forks of the King River and Kings Canyon.
• Yucca Point - Take advantage of another scenic overlook at Yucca Point to stretch your legs and enjoy a beautiful view of the Sierra Nevada. This overlook is situated above the Kings River.
• Scenic Byway Viewpoint - The Scenic Byway Viewpoint offers a fantastic view of the limestone vein, also known as marble, that runs through the park. Look for the gray stone contrasting with the surrounding landscape.
• Boyden Cavern - Join a guided tour of the remarkable marble cavern, featuring stalactites, stalagmites, and other rock formations. Tours last 45 minutes to an hour and are operated by a small company for a nominal fee. Note that there is a short but steep walk from the parking lot to the cave entrance.
• Grizzly Falls Picnic Area - Relax at Grizzly Falls Picnic Area by the waterfall, which cascades 80 feet in a shaded forest area. The falls are a short walk from the picnic area and parking lot, making it a perfect lunch spot. Restrooms are available, and the waterfall is a must-see.
• Cedar Grove Visitor Center - The Cedar Grove Visitor Center, located in Cedar Grove Village, is the second and final visitor center of the day. It provides information on the area’s natural and cultural history and is open seasonally from Memorial Day to mid-September. The Sequoia Parks Conservancy Store inside offers souvenirs, clothing, and other items.
• Knapp’s Cabin - Step back in time at Knapp’s Cabin and enjoy a beautiful view of the canyon. This riverside cabin, once owned by George O. Knapp for fishing trips with friends, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is accessible via a short trail from the parking area.
• Roaring River Falls - Experience tranquility at Roaring River Falls, accessible by an easy, nearly third-of-a-mile out-and-back trail. From there, continue to Zumwalt Meadows on a 4-mile (6 km) trail.
• Zumwalt Meadow Trail - A visit to Zumwalt Meadows is a must-do in Kings Canyon. Reach this stunning meadow via an easy 0.75-mile out-and-back trail, and keep an eye out for wildlife.
• Muir Rock - Conclude the tour at Muir Rock, where the canyon saves the best for last. This flat slab on the Kings River bank is a peaceful spot to relax. Local legend says John Muir enjoyed spending time here and chatting with visitors. The rock is a short, easy walk from the parking area.
