    Getting TO/AROUND: When I was there we reached the park following Highway 198 from Three Rivers, where we stayed overnight, to the south entrance. This is probably the most beautiful way to enter Sequoia National Park. On your way to the entrance you pass the rock tunnel shown on the photo beside this text.

    The biggest city nearby is Fresno. From Fresno just follow Highway 180 to the East. Or go south on Highway 99 and then east on Highway 198.

    Getting TO/AROUND: The roads within the park border are well-paved. The main highway leading through it is Highway 198. It passes by all major attractions like the Giant Forest and other Sequoia coves. Also along the road are many picknick and recreation sites. For most of its way the road leads through forest. At some points the road goes up steeply gaining elevation in the mountains (as you can see on the picture).

     Good ice cream! The Mocha Almond Fudge was VERY good I like it better than Baskin Robins it has a much stronger coffee taste. As for the “Three River’s Blackberry” Wow! It was vanilla ice cream with Blackberry swirls, and whole blackberries. Delicious!
