Kings Canyon National Park

Established in 1940, Kings Canyon National Park protects 461,901 acres of pristine Sierra Nevada wilderness. The park features one of North America's deepest canyons, ancient giant sequoia groves, and a vast high-country wilderness.

Often partnered with adjacent Sequoia National Park, Kings Canyon offers visitors access to towering peaks, rushing rivers, and diverse ecosystems ranging from foothill chaparral to alpine peaks. The park's dramatic glacier-carved canyon rivals the depth of the Grand Canyon.
