Sequoia National Park is located in the southern Sierra Nevada Mountains of California, USA. The park was established in 1890 and is the country’s second oldest National Park. The city of Visalia lies to the west, while Los Angeles lies nearly 320 km to the south.
The park’s elevation ranges from 425 m to 4,400 m which results in a diverse weather pattern. The region usually experiences hot summers and snowy winters with temperatures falling below –15°C.
