Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks consist of 865,257 acres of public space. There are 842 miles of trails, over 200 known caves, miles of scenic rivers, and tall granite peaks. Sequoia is the second oldest national park. The giant sequoia tree is the largest tree in the world. Kings Canyon is a glacier-carved canyon and one of the deepest of its kind in North America. Mt. Whitney on the eastern border of Sequoia, is the highest peak in the continental United States. These parks are truly a land of superlatives.

Lake Kaweah is a reservoir situated in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada with a window to the tall peaks of Sequoia National Park. Operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, it provides ample recreation opportunities for water skiing, fishing, kayaking, bird watching or just to cool off in the heat of the summer. Lake Kaweah is home to a hydroelectric plant that saves over 67,000 barrels of oil each year. SPC operates the bookstore in the Kaweah Heritage Visitor Center.
