Know your destination
General Sherman Tree and the Giant Forest are inside Sequoia National Park. From Three Rivers, Highway 198 leads to the Ash Mountain entrance. The entrance and the giant sequoia groves are different destinations: allow time for the mountain drive.
Official park directions ↗Sequoia National Forest is separate from the national park. Choose the specific grove or trail you want to visit before planning a route; a forest destination may require a different drive. Check the Forest Service for access and closures.
Official national forest guide ↗Paradise Ranch Inn borders Sequoia National Park along its quieter back boundary. Our 50-acre riverfront retreat is outside the park, at 49741 South Fork Drive. Staying on the boundary does not provide direct road access to General Sherman or the Giant Forest.
Explore the houses and glampingSettle into your house or tent on arrival, then devote a separate day to the park. All guests are 18 or older. Houses have private cedar hot tubs; tents use shared bathhouse facilities. Return for a quieter evening beside the river.
