What to expect
Clingan's Junction Cabins & Coffee
This place is a must stop before any trip to Kings Canyon. Here we will stop, grab a cup of coffee, some delicious pastries and go over the details of the day. From their lattes to their italian sodas, you can not go wrong with a drink here. My favorites are their vanilla and spiced chai. As for food, you have lots of options and their baked goods are all made in house! If you are wanting something sweet,their scones and cinnamon rolls are to die for. My favorite go to sandwhich here is the spicy ring- a jalepeno cheese homemade bagel with a sausage quiche. There are keto, vegitarian and gluten free options here too.
Our next stop will be Grant Grove, a few miles into Kings Canyon National Park. This short and easy hike will surround you with Giant Sequoias, some of the largest and oldest trees in America. There is a chance to walk through the trunk of a fallen tree, stand inside a hollow tree and take tons of photos of these giants.
Before leaving the park, we'll make a stop at Kings Canyon vistor center to allow you to grab souvenirs. They have books, apparel, magnets, coffee and traveler mugs, jewelry, stickers and post cards availible for purchase.
Cedar Grove Village
Travelers will gradually decend into Kings Canyon where they will see roaring rivers, waterfalls, gorgeous granite canyon walls and possibly a bear or two! Guest have an option to do an easy hike to the meadow or waterfalls.
