Welcome to the Sequoia National Park Tour
“If trees could talk, these would whisper in centuries.”
They don’t need to shout. Standing silent and immovable, the sequoias of this forest have seen empires rise and fall, glaciers come and go, and stars shift above their canopies.
Here in Sequoia and Kings Canyon, it’s not about doing—it’s about feeling small in the best possible way. You’ll pass trees older than the Bible, taller than Big Ben, and broader than a city bus. Some are still growing. Some have fallen. All of them are unforgettable.
What makes this place worth the drive?
Two national parks, one road trip. One side is home to the Giant Forest and the world’s largest tree. The other is Kings Canyon—the deepest in the Lower 48. And in between? Waterfalls, wildflowers, granite domes, and sweeping alpine views that appear to have been painted by hand.
With this self-guided audio tour, you’ll have GPS-triggered stories that play automatically as you drive—no reception needed and no group to keep up with—just you, the road, and the red giants.
Highlights you won’t forget:
The Four Guardsmen, standing like ancient sentries at the gates of the forest
Moro Rock, a stairway to sweeping views above the treetops
The Tunnel Log, where a fallen sequoia becomes the road
The General Sherman Tree, the largest living organism on Earth
The General Grant Tree was once declared a National Shrine
And finally, Kings Canyon Overlook & Panoramic Point, where the world opens up in silence and light
Disclaimer: No WiFi, no crowds, no stress. Just one massive tree after another, quietly reminding you that your problems aren’t that big after all.
NOTE: For all road closure updates and more, please visit the National Park Service website.
