This national park is named after another species of the Sequoia family, the Sequoiadendron giganteum – colloquially known as the giant redwood. Drive-through trees and huge, ancient examples of the redwoods here characterize the park. In fact, it’s here that you will find General Sherman, a giant redwood that’s claimed to be the largest living tree on Earth.
There are also deep, 10,000-year-old caves that hide supersize stalactites. For a breathtaking vista of the Sierra Mountains, head to Eagle View.
