Campgrounds in the Grant Grove area are forested and linked by trails. The nearby Grant Tree Trail leads to the General Grant Tree, the second-largest tree on Earth. Other hiking trails lead directly from the campgrounds through sequoia groves and to meadows and waterfalls.
In summer, rangers offer evening programs at Sunset Amphitheater, near Sunset Campground. Grant Grove Village is near all of the campgrounds and has a visitor center, market, post office, and restaurant.
