Sightseeing
McKinley Grove is a small, isolated giant sequoia grove located about 7.5 mi southeast of Dinkey Creek in the Kings River watershed of Sierra National Forest, California. The grove occupies a small bowl-shaped depression at an elevation of 6,316 ft.
The grove hosts between 150 and 200 large trees. Parts of the grove were logged in the 1980s, though the heart of the grove remains largely untouched. A short paved path winds through a cluster of about 20 giant sequoias with an open understory of dogwood resembling that of the Giant Forest grove of Sequoia National Park. The grove also features a large fallen giant sequoia.
