What to see ? Giant sequoia, Dawn redwood, Sempervirens Falls , Founders Monument at Slippery Rock , Sky Meadow, Union Creek, Blooms Creek, old growth Coast redwoods and Opal Creek
Route A: Sequoia Trail to Sempervirens Falls & Slippery Rock There and back - Easy Length 3.5 miles Time 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours Elevation Approximately +/- 200 feet
Route B: Sequoia Trail - Skyline to the Sea Trail - Loop - Moderate Length 4.5 miles Time 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours Elevation Approximately +/- 300 feet
