About this event

California Inland Region

Trail of 100 Giants Fun Run

Join us for a fun run to the high Sierras and escape the heat for an easy half-mile hike on a paved trail through the Giant Sequoia Grove called 100 Giants. We will stop at the Kernville Airport for lunch where the hamburgers have been reported to be "DELICIOUS!" There is a picnic area near the grove if you want to stay and have a picnic. For more information visit the U.S. Forest Service site for maps and a tour guide. "Trail Of 100 Giants: This gentle trail (6% maximum grade) is suitable for wheel chairs and loops its way through the grove. Many fine interpretive signs are found throughout. Hiking along the trail through the grove, you'll find mainly old sequoias. You will view a unique cedar and sequoia tree growing together, and a circle of five sequoias growing together. At each and every turn there are wonders to behold!"
