Hike three of the nation's finest natural wonders - Yosemite, Kings Canyon, and Sequoia National Parks. These treasured parks provide a stunning landscape of giant sequoia trees, tumbling waterfalls, alpine lakes, and granite peaks. You'll be in constant awe hiking amid this natural grandeur. In the evenings, we relax in historic inns enjoying sumptuous meals at the area's finest restaurants.
Inn Highlights: Beautifully crafted of cedar and stone and located within Sequoia National Park, Wuksachi Lodge is perched on a rocky outcropping some 7,200 feet above sea level with panoramic views of the high Sierra. The Appletree Inn is a quaint cottage style resort situated on 11 wooded acres. Situated on the banks of the Merced River and at the doorstep to the national park, Yosemite View Lodge provides all the comforts of home.

From Fresno we shuttle to Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks.

Our final hike here takes us through majestic stands of sequoia trees in Giant Forest and then via the High Sierra Trail to lush Crescent Meadow and, optionally, to Moro Rock. (B/L/D).
