Big Trees Loop Trail

The Big Trees Loop Trail is a 0.3-mile loop-trip that takes 30-45 minutes to complete, offering numerous interpretive panels on the life and ecology of giant sequoias. The trail is relatively flat and wheelchair accessible, making it a great option for families. The Mariposa Grove, where the trail is located, is the largest sequoia grove in Yosemite and is home to over 500 mature giant sequoias. Visitors can explore the grove and enjoy the scenic views, and there are also guided tours and programs available. The grove has restrooms, including some with plumbing, and picnic areas. The trail is suitable for families with children, and the scenic views and educational panels make it a great place to learn about nature and the environment
