Moro Rock Trail

My very first time here and I loved it. The hike itself is very enjoyable and doable, maybe if your afraid of heights it won't be to much because there's views, views, views along the entire trail until the tip of the rock where you can see 360 views. It is a short hike but because of the elevation you'll be out of breath quickly and there are many areas along the trail where you'll have to stop and let people pass by because there isn't enough space for hiking down and up traffic. The museum you pass by going up to the rock trail is pretty cool inside. The road up to Morro Rock trail at times is wide enough for one car so be safe, drive slow and move over for other cars when needed. The restrooms are what's expected, not to clean but when you gotta go they're helpful. We entered coming through Fresno and took about and hour to get to Morro Rock Trail from the entrance of the park. You'll have go through Sequoia National Park and into Kings Canyon, pretty cool. We went Nov. 30th and there was snow, keep snow equipment for yourself and your vehicle in mind for safety. Oh and your pass with the cost of $35 per vehicle is valid for about a week.

Short but might be a bit strenuous for some with the over 300 steps and altitude. Can be busy with people going up and down sharing the trail. Well worth the sights of mountains and from the top. We formed a line to wait so everyone can get a picture. Great workout! Parking can be an issue if it's tourist season. It fills fast and we parked off the main road on the dirt.

Fun short climb—about 350 steps to the top, with great views all along the way. We easily found parking nearby. It takes longer because you often pause to let others pass. The views from the top are stunning, but there’s usually a line for photos—honestly, not worth waiting too long.

Well maintained trail with 360 concrete steps and hand rails. The stairs switch back and are fairly easy. Should have adequate ability to attempt. Views are worth the walk. Highly recommend.

Unforgettable experience! The hike up the steep stone steps was a bit challenging, but totally worth it for the breathtaking panoramic views of the giant sequoias and surrounding mountains. The feeling of standing on top, surrounded by nature’s grandeur, is absolutely incredible. A must-visit spot for anyone exploring the park! 🌲🪨🌄

This has been on my bucket list, and I’m glad I finally got there. It’s a long drive to get there from the Southern entrance, but worth it. It seems imposing, but unless you are afraid of heights, or really out of shape, it’s not that hard - just a lot of steps and some narrow angled walkways. The view from the top makes it all worthwhile. Breathtaking. Just do it.

Hiking up Moro Rock is an unforgettable experience that rewards you with one of the most breathtaking sunset views you’ll ever witness. The trail is short but quite steep, with a series of stone steps and switchbacks carved right into the granite. While the climb can be a bit challenging, it feels safe thanks to the sturdy handrails and well-maintained stairs guiding you all the way to the top. Once you reach the summit, the panoramic view is absolutely worth the effort. Watching the sun dip below the distant mountain ranges, casting golden light across the valleys, is simply magical. The cool breeze, the colors in the sky, and the sense of accomplishment make it an incredibly special moment. It’s a must-do for anyone visiting Sequoia National Park. Just be sure to wear good shoes, take your time, and bring your camera. This is a view you’ll want to remember forever.
