Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Park
Plan Your Fall Visit
 
Fall leaves carpet the ground.

Fall here generally lasts from mid-September through November. Autumn is a great, uncrowded time to visit the parks. The weather may bring sudden storms and deliver snow as low as the sequoia groves. A few facilities start to close but many remain open. To learn more information about fall in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, check out the links below or call 1-559-565-3341.

Did You Know?
Sequoia and Kings Canyon suffer from one of the worst air-pollution problems of any national park! Pollution — particularly ozone — from the Central Valley and the Bay Area is carried up into these mountains by warm winds. It challenges all of us everywhere to clear the air!
